Mills Cemetery is one of the earliest family cemeteries of Obion County. The first known burial was in 1845, but there may have been more prior to that. This was on the Mills family land but there are other families buried here as well, such as Clymer and Wright. Some claim that this was a "fairly large" family cemetery, while a 1930s note indicates only four tombstones. However, the Mills Cemetery was destroyed in the 1990s for farmland. One gravestone was salvaged and later moved to Simpson Hill Cemetery, while the rest were pushed into a ditch.
