Old Salem Cemetery
Bell Buckle, Bedford County, Tennessee

Very old cemetery, established in 1810, with a 'meeting house' and then a church also being on the grounds. The church was torn down many years ago. Grounds were well kept. Many very old markers here. First burial here was Jerusha Coffey, who died Mar 10, 1810; she was the daughter of Rice and Sarah Coffey and was born in 1792.
