Hines Cemetery
I started this cemetery project photographing my family cemeteries as part of my genealogical research
and one of the first I did was the Hines Cemetery at Monoville. My mother and I have just completed
raising $3500.00 for a new fence for this cemetery which was installed last week. We got donations from
over 20 family members from 5 states plus a generous donation from Peyton's Creek Missionary Baptist
Church. R.B. Davis who is buried here pastored at Peyton's Creek 41 years.
This was a nice repayment for his service. John Waggoner Jr. July 20.2000

Rev. Rufus Davis
Rev. Rufus Davis served in 23rd Tn. Inf. CSA for four years and pastored
the Peyton's Creek Missionary Baptist Church at Monoville for 41 years.
In 1997 Kirk Hines came from Calif. with a member of his family to show
them this cemetery that he wanted to be his final resting place. The
next day while on a trip to Crossville he had a heart attack and died
along the interstate. He was buried here.
I have two sets of greatgrandparents buried in the Hines Cemetery. James
Thomas Chaffin and wife, Lulu Boston Chaffin; Henry Thomas "Bub" Key and
wife, Betty Smith Key. Also great-great grandparents Harvey C. Chaffin and
wife, Julia Ann Gregory Chaffin.
