I have several relatives that are supposed to be buried in Peeled Chestnut Cemetery in White County and I was wondering if there is a listing anywhere of those buried there? These include my Great Great Grandparents: Stephen W (1839-1902) and Margaret R (Cope) Johnson (1840-1902).

I am also looking for the gravesite... which could be Peeled Chestnut... of my Great Great Great Grandparents: James Johnson birth: abt 1799 / death: abt 1880
Temperance Johnson: birth: abt 1805 / death: abt 1880 (unknown maiden name)

Thanks for any help you can give me! Ellen Rowley

The cemetery book for White Co., TN lists, as buried in Peeled Chestnut Cemetery,:

Johnson, M.R. 20 Oct 1840 3 Apr 1902 d/o Andrew & Elizabeth Cope; md. Stephen W. Johnson 10 Nov 1959 [sic] (obviously 1859) in White Co. TN
Johnson, S.W. Johnson 12 Mar 1839 29 Mar 1902


Could not find any listing for any Johnson old enough to James and/or Temperance--sorry.

Thank you SO MUCH for your generosity of effort to look this up for me! It is so exciting to put the pieces of the puzzle together to figure out family relationships!
