DROKE CEMETERY - This cemetery is located on a hill on the South side of Reedy Creek, near where the Blountville to Reedy Creek road joins the new highway down Reedy Creek to Kingsport. There are many graves not marked, many marked with plain limestone markers and some with inscriptions not legible. I believe I have copied all stones with a legible inscription. This census of graves was made by Charles M. Bennett, Oct. 21, 1957 We found a second reading for this cemetery done by Karen L. Sherman. We have put both reading together. Annotated S. Kathryn Bowling McKown


There is another Droke Cemetery located on the Droke Farm in Piney Flats, near Boone Lake. Directions: From Highway 394, take Beaver Creek Road west, where the road name changes to Enterprise Road. Continue on Enterprise Road and cross Rainbow Bridge. Take the next road to the left, Droke Road. Cemetery is located approx 1/2 mile on the left. JT
