Brady Cemetery Inscriptions Rhea County, Tennessee Made available to The USGenWeb Archives by Edna Clack Woodchippy@aol.com The cemetery lies beside the railroad, across a field from Cemetery Road just south of Spring City. The land and home used to belong to Richard G Waterhouse before the Brady family. Indeed, Richard was buried there but the stone is gone. The Thurman family ownes it now and use the field for pasture. It is almost gone. Some stones appear to have sunk into the graves, some stones removed. The old home is still in use. Below is the WPA inventory taken during the 1930's with their instructions on how to get there.
