Washington, Tennessee, Jacob Brown Cemetery sign
Brown Cemetery - Take State Hwy 81 S out of Jonesborough, turn West onto Taylor Bridge Road (just before you cross the Nolichucky River). Go .8 mile (on the right is mailbox 299 in front of a two story brick house that sits back from the road) turn left through a gate, then immediately turn right onto a lane. Go past the barn and turn right, then straight through another gate, once through the gate, go left up to the top of the hill approximately 1/4 mile. The cemetery is in a stand of trees surrounded by a chain link fence and barbed wire. On one side, at the bottom of the hill is Cherokee Creek and on the other is the Nolichucky River. It has been recorded that outside the fence are fifteen unmarked slave graves. On Ancestry from jolleymom4.
