About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Turn off Burgess Falls Road at Gentry's Chapel; left on first road; about 1 mi; cemetery on right. This cemetery is located south of I-40 in Cookeville. Go south on Burgess Falls Road to Gentry Chapel Church, turn right on Cane Creek Road and then turn left at Bennett Road to the first gravel road. It is located just a short distance on the right up a hill and the driveway goes around the cemetery. This was probably started as family cemetery in 1856 when the son of William Gentry and Lucinda Conway died. Thomas L. Gentry is the oldest grave with a legible marker. There are many unmarked graves and it is said that there are many graves outside the fence. There are some markers that were moved here from farms of the different families. The decoration is in August and it is fairly well maintain throughout the year.
