This cemetery is located approximately 3 miles west of the 
Cloverdale Church of Christ. Several Erwins are buried in 
this cemetery; also a few McClellands, who married into 
the Erwin family. 
The Erwins immigrated from Ireland in the late 1840's or 
early 1850's.  
Robert Erwin, one of three brothers, who came to Obion 
County, purchased land approximately 2 miles west of 
Elbridge. The land was formerly a land grant from North 
Carolina.  The farm remained in the Erwin family for 124 
years. It was recognized as a century farm several years 
past. 
The monuments are in a depressed condition, some 
overturned, but the names are still legible. The few, 
remaining, Erwin family members cannot document why they 
chose this site for a family cemetery.  Descendants of the 
family buried in this cemetery are buried in the Elbridge 
Cemetery.
