Willie/William Bevil, Bevill, Beville - gravestone

I have looked for my great grandfather for many years and we are pretty sure he was buried in one of these counties. He died in Big Sandy, TN in around 1910-1918. His wife, Diamond Finch (Beville) is buried at Jones Cemetery in the Parkers Crossroads area, just outside McKenzie. Her family plot is there but her husband is nowhere to be found. Her grew up in Faxon, a community next to Big Sandy, TN. Diamond lived there with her grandmother after her mother died, shortly after her mother's death.

I have searched findagrave.com for anything Willie Bevill(e) but to no avail. I've been to Crooked Creek Cemetery near Faxon, where Diamond's grandparents were buried and have toured Jones Cemetery where Diamond is buried.

Any suggestions as to what the next step should be.

I've found a death certificate for William Beville who died Nov 14 1914 in Faxon, Benton County, TN of typhoid fever. There is no undertaker or place of burial listed, however it does give the names of his parents. You will find a copy of the certificate attached.

Thanks. I have a copy of that. I found it at the TN Archives.

I've tried to locate Charles or Mary but no luck:(

Thanks for your help.
