GENTRY CEMETERY
This Cemetery was submitted by Dickson's good friend, Jennifer L. Gentry
Location of cemetery is East of White Bluff road, North of I-96 in Dickson County near Bakers Works. You have to access it through an iron gate on the left hand side, adjacent to a house. The cemetery is fenced and in very good condition. The below table is transcribed as written on the stones. I also have pictures of every tombstone if anyone is interested. Just email me at JenGentry@yahoo.com. My direct relation in this cemetery is Ocie M. Gentry and Esther E. Gentry, which are my paternal grandparents.
Here is the list of headstones from the south side of the cemetery, moving from east to west:
