CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH OF BEARDEN
(Deane Hill Drive at Kingston Pike)

Compilation and comments by David Donahue

          The cemetery at Central Baptist Church of Bearden is older than the church and was originally a community cemetery on private land. The church aquired the cemetery through deed of gift.

          The first impression of this cemetery, with its manicured grass, is that it is well cared for. That is only a first impression. Air conditioning units, buildings, and service sheds extend into the cemetery on the east. The ground to the south has been cut away to widen the drive to a parking lot. The fenced playground built on the west side of the cemetery has been expanded to the point the fence lies against markers. A parking lot and covered walkway have cut into the north side of the cemetery. In 1989 there was a satellite dish in an area where a series of grave shaft depressions were faintly visible. [Some depressions were still visible in 1997.] By 1997 the satellite dish had been removed, but a sidewalk had been built diagonally through the cemetery. Markers in the way were relocated as necessary.

          This cemetery was recorded May 6, 1989 and was checked August 26, 1989. It was rechecked January 21, 1997. Two previous transcriptions exist for this cemetery. The cemetery was surveyed by Eldah Bell Amick on March 29, 1957. Her record appears in Knox County Cemetery Records, an unpublished manuscript in the McClung Collection, Knox County Public Library, Knoxville, Tennessee. The cemetery was transcribed again by Anthony R. Cruze on March 30, 1976. His unpublished manuscript, Tombstone Inscriptions and Death Records of the Central Baptist Church of Bearden Cemetery Knoxville, Tennessee 1876-1976, is available in the McClung Collection, Knox County Public Library. The Cruze record indicates the relative positions of all graves found at that time, which may be important at a later date given the pressures on this cemetery. These earlier records were compared and notes are made where appropriate.

          The rate of marker loss at this cemetery is high. Nine markers disappeared 1957-1976, three markers disappeared 1976-1989, and seven markers disappeared 1989-1997. [For comparison, consider the 1956-1989 marker loss at Ebenezer Cemetery. Ebenezer Cemetery is a much older and larger cemetery which is owned by Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church. This cemetery is benignly neglected except for grass/weed cutting once or twice a year. Only four permanent markers seemed to have disappeared 1956-1989 - one was a carved fieldstone, one was noted to be mostly buried in 1956, and one had a death date of 1817 and was probably simple unreadable in 1989.]

          In most cemetery transcriptions, the note "fallen" means simply that - the marker has fallen, most often from natural weathering of the marker, ground settlement into grave, and downslope soil surface creep. At this cemetery it denotes markers which have deliberately been laid flat and countersunk into the ground surface for ease of mowing. This is a major problem for the marble markers meant to stand vertically, as lying face up the ground surface increases their exposure to moisture and the rate at which they are turning to calcite and eroding away.

CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH OF BEARDEN
(Deane Hill Drive at Kingston Pike)

Compilation and comments by David Donahue

          The cemetery at Central Baptist Church of Bearden is older than the church and was originally a community cemetery on private land. The church aquired the cemetery through deed of gift.

          The first impression of this cemetery, with its manicured grass, is that it is well cared for. That is only a first impression. Air conditioning units, buildings, and service sheds extend into the cemetery on the east. The ground to the south has been cut away to widen the drive to a parking lot. The fenced playground built on the west side of the cemetery has been expanded to the point the fence lies against markers. A parking lot and covered walkway have cut into the north side of the cemetery. In 1989 there was a satellite dish in an area where a series of grave shaft depressions were faintly visible. [Some depressions were still visible in 1997.] By 1997 the satellite dish had been removed, but a sidewalk had been built diagonally through the cemetery. Markers in the way were relocated as necessary.

          This cemetery was recorded May 6, 1989 and was checked August 26, 1989. It was rechecked January 21, 1997. Two previous transcriptions exist for this cemetery. The cemetery was surveyed by Eldah Bell Amick on March 29, 1957. Her record appears in Knox County Cemetery Records, an unpublished manuscript in the McClung Collection, Knox County Public Library, Knoxville, Tennessee. The cemetery was transcribed again by Anthony R. Cruze on March 30, 1976.

CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH OF BEARDEN
(Deane Hill Drive at Kingston Pike)

Compilation and comments by David Donahue

          The cemetery at Central Baptist Church of Bearden is older than the church and was originally a community cemetery on private land. The church aquired the cemetery through deed of gift.

          The first impression of this cemetery, with its manicured grass, is that it is well cared for. That is only a first impression. Air conditioning units, buildings, and service sheds extend into the cemetery on the east. The ground to the south has been cut away to widen the drive to a parking lot. The fenced playground built on the west side of the cemetery has been expanded to the point the fence lies against markers. A parking lot and covered walkway have cut into the north side of the cemetery. In 1989 there was a satellite dish in an area where a series of grave shaft depressions were faintly visible. [Some depressions were still visible in 1997.] By 1997 the satellite dish had been removed, but a sidewalk had been built diagonally through the cemetery. Markers in the way were relocated as necessary.

          This cemetery was recorded May 6, 1989 and was checked August 26, 1989. It was rechecked January 21, 1997. Two previous transcriptions exist for this cemetery. The cemetery was surveyed by Eldah Bell Amick on March 29, 1957. Her record appears in Knox County Cemetery Records, an unpublished manuscript in the McClung Collection, Knox County Public Library, Knoxville, Tennessee. The cemetery was transcribed again by Anthony R. Cruze on March 30, 1976. His unpublished manuscript, Tombstone Inscriptions and Death Records of the Central Baptist Church of Bearden Cemetery Knoxville, Tennessee 1876-1976, is available in the McClung Collection, Knox County Public Library. The Cruze record indicates the relative positions of all graves found at that time, which may be important at a later date given the pressures on this cemetery. These earlier records were compared and notes are made where appropriate.

          The rate of marker loss at this cemetery is high. Nine markers disappeared 1957-1976, three markers disappeared 1976-1989, and seven markers disappeared 1989-1997. [For comparison, consider the 1956-1989 marker loss at Ebenezer Cemetery. Ebenezer Cemetery is a much older and larger cemetery which is owned by Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church. This cemetery is benignly neglected except for grass/weed cutting once or twice a year. Only four permanent markers seemed to have disappeared 1956-1989 - one was a carved fieldstone, one was noted to be mostly buried in 1956, and one had a death date of 1817 and was probably simple unreadable in 1989.]

          In most cemetery transcriptions, the note "fallen" means simply that - the marker has fallen, most often from natural weathering of the marker, ground settlement into grave, and downslope soil surface creep. At this cemetery it denotes markers which have deliberately been laid flat and countersunk into the ground surface for ease of mowing. This is a major problem for the marble markers meant to stand vertically, as lying face up the ground surface increases their exposure to moisture and the rate at which they are turning to calcite and eroding away.
