History
5
Built about 1885 by Pinkney Hufstedler for the burial of family members, this is one of the largest known grave houses in middle Tennessee. It is constructed of cut limestone with a double-thickness wall and a frame structure on top of the wall. There are approximately eight graves, seven of which are unmarked. Pinkney Hufstedler covered the grave site because he did not want water to get into the graves. The site is on the National Register of Historic Places.
