Burials in Sylvan Mill Cemetery
These cemetery records are all from one cemetery which has changed names several times, but is only one cemetery in the same location. It is barely visible today and is quite overgrown. A sign today identifies it as Shelbyville Mills Cemetery. It is located in Shelbyville, Bedford Co., TN near the old Sylvan Mill. GPS Coordinates are 352840N 0862914W. Other names have been Bell, Troupe, and Cotton Mill. The earliest recorded grave shown here is 1880 and the latest burial was in 1956. Names without death certificate numbers or Family History Library numbers appeared on earlier lists and may have occurred before 1908 when TN began registering deaths. Sadly, many of those buried here are infants and young children. Omissions and errors are unintentional. Please advise countynooz@aol.com of any needed additions or corrections.
