There is a bit of confusion about Lucy's final resting place.

Lucy and John Williams Bell are buried together in the Old Bell Cemetery in Adams, Robertson County, Tennessee. It is a private cemetery also known as the John Bell Cemetery. It is/was a wooded area located on the original property of the Bell Family in Adams, Robertson County, TN.

Burial misconceptions, memorial misplacements, and clarifications:

Bell Family Cemetery (9134) in Springfield, Robertson County, Tennessee
This is a small cemetery consisting primarily of Bell Family members. The location is about 30 miles from the Bell family property. The first burial at this site was over 50 years after the death of Lucy or John. This cemetery contains a memorial for Lucy Bell incorrectly placed in it.

Bellwood Cemetery (9155) in Adams, Robertson County, Tennessee
This is a large public cemetery. Burials in this cemetery also didn't begin until over 40 years after John and Lucy's interment. A grave photo has been mistakenly added to a John and/or Lucy Bell memorial incorrectly placed in this cemetery. John Williams Bell Jr's memorial and gravestone has also been incorrectly placed in this cemetery. Memorials for John Williams Bell Sr & Jr have the same "person" photo on memorial.
This cemetery does have an large centopath "In Memory Of" Wall containing, John Williams Bell Sr., Lucy Bell, John Williams Bell Jr, and other family members names.

Lucy (Williams) Bell was born to John and Mouring Williams in 1770 in Edgecombe County, North Carolina. Lucy married John Williams Bell Sr when she was very young (about 12 years old) around 1782 in Edgecombe County, North Carolina. John and Lucy moved in 1804 and settled near the Red River in Robertson County, Tennessee. She died in 1837 in Adams, Robertson County, Tennessee.

She is buried by John William Bell Sr, who preceded her in death. He was born to William Bell and Ann Jones in 1750 in Edgecombe County, NC. He died December 20, 1820 in Robertson County, Tennessee.
