Wolf Springs Cemetery
Also known as Tennessee Cemetery
Dallas County, Texas, USA
From Malloy Bridge Road, go 1.8 miles south on Parkinson. Turn left at Wolf Springs Road and go 0.4 miles east. Dallas County Mapsco 89A-Y
Also known as Tennessee Cemetery, perhaps in honor of the area's first settlers - the McKnights, Andrews, McFarlins and Colonel Berry, who formed a caravan that left Tennessee in September 1851. The McKnights and Andrews settled on about 4600 acres, 10% of the land being in Dallas County and the rest in what would become Ellis County, the area eventually known as the McKnight-Andrews Corner.
The cemetery included the upper half of a farm now occupying the area, from the barn south to the pond, some of the cemetery perhaps under the barn. A Baptist church next to the cemetery has since been torn down. There are no markers; at some time in the past, the headstones were removed and tossed into the nearby Trinity River.
