Cedar Hill Cemetery

Cedar Hill Cemetery

Posted on February 28, 2019October 23, 2023 by ML Williams

Cedar Hill Cemetery, located at the Mason city limits on the north side of town, is an old large cemetery. Consequently, many of the life long residents have been buried here.

Located within the city limits of Mason, Cedar Hill is approximately a half mile north of Hwy 70 and TN 59. The cemetery will be on your left after crossing the intersection.

Also, the cemetery is not associated with a church.

The first marked burial in this cemetery was that of Martha Hilliard Hunt. She was the daughter of Col. Isaac and Leah Crawford Hilliard, and was born on 25 Oct 1788 in Hilliardston, NC. She died on 10 Aug 1847 at 58 years of age. The second oldest burial in the cemetery is her husband, Nathaniel Macon Hunt. He was the son of John and Mary Jeffreys Hunt. Martha and Nathaniel were married on 10 Mar 1810.
