Temple Jewish Cemetery
Nashville, Davidson County
Located on 15th Ave at Clay St and Clarksville Pike in the Metrocenter area.
This cemetery was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.
I only photographed some markers in the older section. It seemed in parts of this section
that people were actually buried in order that the died as the dates seemed to be in
chronological order and family members were not beside one another. I am also interested
in finding out the story behind the rows and rows of small markers that did not have any
inscriptions(or were completely worn off). (epidemic victims?)
