SLAUGHTER CEMETERY
Take Wilma Rudolph Blvd. from Clarksville to Warfield Blvd. Turn right and cross bridge. Turn right in first driveway. The cemetery is across the front yard in a wrought iron fence.
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.
