Note from Carol Killebrew Williams-Hach:

I have been researching and preserving the Killebrew Cemetery (also known as the Killebrew-McDaniel Cemetery) for quite a few years. The research will continue until I have exhausted all records. Having started with the earliest newspaper in 1808, I am now through 1939. I know that my great-uncle, Ed McDaniel, was the last individual buried in the cemetery in 1952, so I have a few more years to research.

My 2nd great-grandparents, Edwin and Mary (Williams) Killebrew founded the cemetery probably in the 1820's when Edwin build their Federal style home called "High Point." However, the earliest date proven is 1847 with the death of Edwin Killebrew. There are 11 tombstones, two funeral home metal markers (without the card), many field stones and even more sunken graves. [approximately 80 graves in this cemetery] Researching obituaries have provided information of others buried in this cemetery.

My great-grandparents, James Lewis and Rachel Ann (Slaughter) Killebrew are also buried in the cemetery with only a field stone marking their graves.

I have placed my book titled "Killebrew Cemetery," annotated, in the Clarksville-Montgomery County Public Library and the Nashville, Tennessee Archives. These books will be updated each time I can document up to two additional individuals buried in the cemetery.
