Please Note that the Listings in this Index are Only for
Obituaries that have been found to date. It does not
include all
those that are listed with readable inscriptions;
therefore, we have not yet cross referenced them to the
tombstone pages. Also, some of those listed on the
Obituary pages may not have been buried at the City
Cemetery. You might want to consult the
www.davidsoncocemeterysurvey.com for further research
on some of the names you seek.
Please use the SEARCH feature
at the bottom of each page to locate those listed in both
directories on this website.

City
Cemetery Obituary Project
The Nashville City
Cemetery Association is very much indebted to the
research efforts of Sarah Armistead. Sarah
has spent many hours working with nearly illegible
microfilms at the Archives to provide us with the
listings here. She plans on continuing the good
work, so refer back to this page to see any new
listings.
There are at least two
ways you can help this project:
-
If you have copies of
obituaries or funeral invitations of people buried at
the City Cemetery, we hope you will share them with us.
Please send clear copies to the NCCA, P. O. Box 150733,
Nashville, TN, 37215-0733. If you have questions
or concerns about how to do this, please e-mail them to
us at
info@thenashvillecitycemetery.org.
-
Sarah Armistead has
volunteered to train two lucky people to find and read
obituaries from nineteenth century newspapers on
microfilm. Sarah says, "Reading the old newspapers
is reading history as it happens. It is my
favorite thing to do at the Archives." If you wish
to volunteer, e-mail Fletch Coke, NCCA Board Member, at
fletch2@bellsouth.net and she will notify Sarah.
