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.

From the intersection of Main St./TN-412 & Tenn. Ave./US-641, in Parson, travel west on Main St./TN-412 for 0.7 mi.; turning north (right) onto Old Lexington Hwy., going 0.5 mi. west, turning north (right) onto Bear Creek Access, going 200 ft. to the cemetery on the east (right) side of the road, across from the Bear Creek Baptist Church.

The church moved to its present site in 1902, but the cemetery is about 25 years older. There are few unmarked graves, primarily because footstones from late nineteenth century-early twentieth century markers were moved and used to mark otherwise unmarked graves. About 100 burials are unidentified and about 8-10 are unmarked.
