BRENT CEMETERY

A family cemetery located in Davy Crockett National Forest about a mile off Tadmor to Kennard forestry road. Go about a mile after turning on road at Tadmor, then left on the first road.

The cemetery started when a young son died during a cold winter. He was placed in the garden and plans were to move him to a Crockett Cemetery to join other family members. These plans changed when a small sister died and was buried there. With passing of years, more family members were buried there and various family friends placed their loved ones in the burial grounds. Wadell Harrison and Nina Craig rechecked the cemetery for the Sesquicentennial edition.
