Location
Mount Carmel Church Cemetery is located on Mt. Carmel Rd in Tipton County, Tennessee and is associated with the Mount Carmel Presbyterian Church. This is a large, well maintained historical cemetery, across the road from a very early, (1836) historic church. There are approximately 800 graves in this cemetery.
The oldest headstone in this cemetery is that of Mrs E.E. Licon. Mrs. Licon was born in 1792 and died on August 22, 1818. The next oldest headstone belongs to Austin Willis Sherrill who was the son of Enos and Elizabeth Lewis Sherrill. Austin was born on March 12, 1797, in North Carolina and died August 14, 1836, in Tipton County. He was married to Louisa McErvin. The third oldest headstone is that of Mrs. E G Hall, wife of Thomas S Hall. She was born in 1792 and died on September 19, 1836.
One of the most ornate headstones, and one of my favorites, is that of Rachel Johnston Hall. Rachel was born on January 11, 1772, in Iredell County, North Carolina, and died on October 22, 1839, at the age of 67. She was the wife of James Thomas Hall.
Two of the largest headstones, obelisks, belong to the Bernard and Sherrill families. These headstones mark the graves of several family members.
Marion A. Hall is also buried in Mount Carmel. He practiced law in Memphis with Mr. Robert H. Stickley.
