David Jernigan Family Cemetery
Fayette County, Tennessee, USA
There are possibly up to 15-20 additional, unmarked burials.
The Jernigan Cemetery (AP42) is located in a heavily wooded area approximately 900 yards north of the Hancock Place Corral Field on the Ames Plantation in Fayette County Tennessee. The cemetery has one gravestone. There is physical evidence in the form of elongated depressions in the ground of at least 15 unmarked graves. Due to the spacing of the graves that can be seen, and the extent of the area covered by the periwinkle plant, which grows in abundance at the cemetery, it appears that the cemetery covers an area approximately 50 yards by 50 yards in size. The only cultural feature associated with the cemetery is an old roadbed which runs along one edge. The Jernigan Cemetery was probably a community cemetery being used by several families living in the surrounding area.
