Works Cemetery


Works Cemetery – E on Old Woodbury Pike, right (S) on Double Springs Road ½ mile W of Double Springs near power line.
5+ marked graves.
Source: Cemeteries and Graveyards of Rutherford County, Tennessee, compiled by Susan G. Daniel and published by the Rutherford County Historical Society in 2005.

This cemetery has fallen victim to overgrowth. In fact, I spoke with the owner of the property  adjacent to the land this cemetery is supposed to be located on and he said that he hasn't been able to find the 5 marked graves. This cemetery is marked on several maps of Rutherford County but is apparently now buried beneath the overgrowth. I took a photo of where there was once an entrance to the cemetery property.
