Mcgavock Confederate Cemetery

The present-day cemetery is located off Lewisburg Pike just a few minutes from downtown Franklin. The graves take up a 2-acre section of the Carnton plantation property. There are thirteen sections, organized by states, to the cemetery layout. The two sections are separated by a 14-foot pathway. (wikipedia)
