Thompson Cemetery
Bruceton, Carroll County, Tennessee, USA
THOMPSON CEMETERY
According to Gordon B. Grooms (born 1923), who took the compiler to the site of this cemetery, he had a life-time knowledge of this graveyard as he was reared in that community. Sometime in the 1980s, a former landowner, now deceased, had workers remove the tombstones and bases completely and cast them into a hole and covered them up. Vinca marks the site now. Fortunately the data had been copied from the tombstones and these appear in CARROLL COUNTY CEMETERY RECORDS by the Carters, 1981, page 1028. Those relevant to this publication are given below.
Located about .1 mile south of Grooms Road, formerly U.S. Highway 70, from a point on this road about .6 mile of its juncture with the new U.S. Highway 70 (laid through here about 1951). It is in the woods slightly south in the southeast corner of Grooms Road and Bobbitt Road.
