Scruggs There is no sign with the name of this cemetery, I got the name from the colored funeral home in Humboldt, Tn.. This cemetery is located on the Peter Smith Gravel Rd., which is located as follows: from the 45W Highway, at Fruitland, between Humboldt and Trenton turn on the Fruitland-Edison-Frog Jump Road, go 2.9 miles to just before Center Baptist Church, turn left onto the Peter Smith Gravel Rd., go 1.1 miles and the cemetery is on the left. It seems that it is taken care of, as the grass is mowed, but there are several broken stones, and several sunken places that could be graves, but with no markers, and some of the markers seem to be home-made.
