Mt. Ararat Graves Listing Book
The following is transcribed from an old graves book listing names and locations of burials in the old cemetery at Mt. Ararat. Names in the Obion County Historical Society Cemetery Book are not included. Errors may occur due to different spellings or where names were used in one book and initials in the other. No dates were listed in the book. The book is dated 1919; do not know if any of the burials took were before 1919. This is not, by any means, the complete list of folks buried there. Dewayne said there were, at least, this many more buried there in the 1800's and that no one knows their names or locations. Contributed by Dennis in Union City. paugh@webtv.net

Jefferson Green Wilkerson and Letitia Annette Nichols were married 16 FEB 1873 in Marshall
Co.,TN. They moved to the Mt. Ararat area of Obion Co. TN in 1884, therefore all of
the children born before that date were born in Marshall County.
THIS IS A NOTE FROM MY PERSONAL INTERVIEW WITH MY MOTHER: ... at least three
children [meaning Lucia. Johnie. and Maggie] died in a typhoid fever epidemic and were
buried at Mt. Ararat cemetery. [She and I had visited that cemetery in 1961 and read the
headstones and made a record of them] Their Mt. Ararat neighbors assisted in moving
the family to their new location west of Troy in 1899. The family continued to use
Mt. Ararat as a burial place for Jefferson Green Wilkerson and Letitia Annette Nichols
Wilkerson. [I can remember the latter's death. but was not allowed to go to the
funeral] Mother and I could find no headstones for my grandparents, but we found those of
the three children. My mother said that no headstones were ever placed at the graves
of the grandparents. [I Placed appropriate headstones for my grandparents in the summer of
2000.] Lloyd Wilkerson
