KILGORE CEMETERY

(Also Sol Durham Cemetery or possibly Sullivan Cemetery)



Located five miles east of Ratcliff off SH-7, turn north into Davy Crockett National Forest after driving a half mile past the Mt. Vernon and Enon Road crossing.


The cemetery was first copied in 1971 by Nannie English, Rubie Petty and Mary Frank Smith. They described the burial grounds as abandoned and that it was possibly called Sullivan Cemetery as a man named Charlie Sullivan lived at one time near the cemetery. For the current publication, Atmer Lucker updated adding another possible identification as Sol Durham Cemetery. He reported that the cemetery is fenced but unkept.
