The cemetery contains family and friends of Joel Blackwell Arendale and Elisabeth Dare Arendale, who were among the earliest settlers of the area. They later purchased the home from the Doran family and lived in it around the time of the Civil War. Civil War records indicate that Arendale provided meat for confederate troops, so it is presumed that he raised livestock on this farm, which lay on both sides of the state line between Alabama and Tennessee.
More information on the history of the Arendales connected with this cemetery may be found on pp. 192-194 in the pictorial history book "Bridgeport, Alabama: Gateway to the Sequatchie Valley."
Please note that this cemetery can only be reached with permission and assistance from the landowners, as it is on private property. It is not accessible from public roads. Contact the staff at Russell Cave for more information.
