I've spent many years researching ancestors who lived in eastern TN and southwest VA, but I'm a relative newcomer to findagrave.

The Doggett Cemetery is a small family cemetery located in Silvacola, Sullivan County, TN. It is also known as Harr Cemetery #3 (in "Families and History of Sullivan County, Tennessee Volume One 1779-1992"). It is located between Kingsport and Bristol, on the corner of Cold Spring Road and the Bristol Highway. GPS 36°34'24.43"N, 82°22'53.09"W

In 2010 the little cemetery had been overrun with brambles, tall reedy grass and old tree stumps for 20 years. No gravestones were visible.

My father, Arthur Lowry Doggett, undertook the effort to clean up the cemetery in August 2010 and finished most of the effort by the summer of 2011. His son-in-law and nephew helped along the way. A huge amount of work was contributed by the owner of the surrounding property. Without his effort and equipment the clearing simply could not have been completed.

Dad took pictures at various times during the work to clear the cemetery. I did all the research to identify the individuals buried here and identified their relation to the Doggett family and their relationship to each other.

Arthur Jackson Doggett and Eliza Jane (Droke) who are buried in this cemetery are my Dad's great grandparents and he is named for his great grandfather, Arthur.

All of the people buried in this cemetery are related to Eliza Jane (Droke) Doggett.
