The Cherokee Reservoir, located in Hamblen, Grainger, Jefferson and Hawkins Counties in upper east Tennessee, flooded a number of cemeteries in the late 1930s and early 1940s. This is the record of those cemeteries with the inventory of those buried there at the time of the removal and the re-internment of those graves. Included are plat maps of the original cemeteries giving the location of each of the graves. Any one with family in this area of Tennessee will be interested in these long lost cemeteries. The materials came from the Tennessee Valley Authority records themselves.

Example from this volume:

“No. 32 LYONS CEMETERY - Contains one grave which was not re-interred. Found in Hamblen County, Tennessee on the lands of E. H. Lyons, et ux, Maude.”
