PEACE CHAPEL CEMETERY

           This cemetery is located on the old Decaturville-Scotts Hill Road (now called Peace Chapel Road) about two miles east of Scotts Hill. It is indicated on the U.S.G.S. Scotts Hill quadrangle (1972). The cemetery is a well maintained. David Donahue recorded this cemetery January 19, 1992 and checked and updated it January 9, 2002.

           The cemetery was recorded by Margarett Alexander and Blanche Tuten on April 13, 1977. Their record appears in Decatur County, Tennessee Cemetery Records by the Captain Nathaniel A. Wesson Chapter, United Daughters of the Confederacy, Parsons, Tennessee, 1984, pp. 451-461. Reference is made to this earlier record where appropriate. Alexander and Tuten estimate "at least 100 unmarked graves." There is no particular evidence for these unmarked graves today as all fieldstones have been removed, and some areas, particularly near the church, are being reused.
