ARCHER CEMETERY

Located on Hairtown Road, Jonesborough, TN, across from Archer Lane, which is the road leading into the Archer Farm at 140 Archer Lane.
GPS location: 36.18.15N 082.31.00W

The cemetery is well care for and is still owned by the Archer family. Many unknown graves in the cemetery are only marked by a stone (approx. 13). The cemetery is an excellent example of how a family cemetery should be kept. It has a wrought iron fence around it and sets back from the road. The small hill where the cemetery is located, is known as Rocky Point on the topographical map.
