On Matthews Lane, off Bewley's Chapel Road (Highway 340), close to Bewley's Chapel, & approximately 8 miles east of Parrottsville, TN. The cemetery is on private land originally farmed by the Easterly family.

Here is a quote from the email of Robert "Bob" Easterly—

"I cannot say conclusively where Johan Georg and Mary Harpine are buried for sure, but.....it is very likely. Several years ago I tried to find the old place, and indeed the original Easterly family farm is located just north of the Greene County line on Highway 340. Matthews Lane wanders off to the west of 340 and dead ends at a farm house. A kind gentlemen took me up to the field where I found the graves of Philip A.C. Easterly (1841-1892) and his wife Martha L. (1841-1891). Sadly, the stones are knocked down and basically being farmed over! The man thought there might be some other graves, but he did not know where they were -- maybe under the barn!
So, it is entirely likely that George and Mary are buried nearby. I would LOVE to see any pictures of their grave site."
The cemetery was located on the right side of the barn or under it. It has been destroyed.
