That is so cool!!
I do a lot of geneology and that is one of my favorite things, walking a cemetary!! I have never seen one that the birth date was in the 1700's. Very cool find!!

Interesting!
I too do genealogy (one of myfavorite hobbies) & enjoy cemetary hunting looking for ancestors. I have seen Rev War soldier graves in various parts of TN.
Could you tell me the name on the stone?. I could not read it.
Thanks

I have been to Old Grey Cemetary in Knoxville. Could anybody recommend some other sites for old historic tombstones?
