BOB YARBROUGH
CEMETERY
Go about 6.6 miles on highway 149 to Palmyra Road, turn left on Palmyra, go .7 miles to Sharptop Road, turn right, go 1.7 miles. Cemetery is on the right.
We try to keep families grouped together. If someone's last name is listed, it means they have a separate headstone. If it is not listed, they are sharing a headstone with someone else. Sometimes
children are on the same headstone as parents.
Since we do not personally know these families, if we aren't sure of a relationship we list who they are buried next to. Any help matching folks with their relatives will be greatly appreciated.
The information is exactly as it appears on the stones. If you know the person's full name, please let us know.
