EBENEZER CEMETERY
(Westland Drive just east of Ebenezer Road)

Compiled and contributed by David Donahue 

          This is a very old cemetery on Westland Drive just east of Ebenezer Road. The cemetery includes the original site of Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church. (Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church, which moved in 1860, still owns the cemetery.) This is the fenced cemetery on the west side of Victory Chapel Baptist Church (in the old Ebenezer Methodist Church building). A sign posted on the cemetery fence says that the Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church was founded in 1796. The cemetery probably was established at the same time. The cemetery was nearly full by around 1900, about which time the remaining open areas seem to have been sold as family plots. The corner stones and iron fences date from this period. Perhaps because this precluded new burials for many, the cemetery almost immediately fell out of favor and few burials were made after 1920, even within the claimed but mostly unused family plots. Many graves here are unmarked, being indicated only by sunken spots, fieldstones, or empty areas. Only about 20-25 percent of the total number of graves here have readable markers. Maintenance is limited to a periodic cutting of grass and trimming of weeds, but except for the sometimes tall grass the cemetery seems to be in good condition. The cemetery was fenced about 1986, at which time loose and fallen markers were uprighted and reinforced.

          The following note was provided in 1989 correspondence concerning the cemetery from Mr. W. M. Sells, Church Administrator for Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church:

It is interesting to us as we have found out that many of the unmarked graves were those of "colored" people that were buried in the cemetery, some of whom were slaves of church members. In later years the black people buried there were related to their ancestors who had been buried there.

          This cemetery was recorded on March 4, 1989. The typed transcription was checked on April 9, 1989. Revisited January 20, 1997.

          This cemetery was recorded earlier in 1964 by Roscoe C. d'Armand, Virginia d'Armand, and Glenn L. Loy. Their record appears in Miscellaneous Knox County Tombstone Inscriptions, Vol. 1, a manuscript in the McClung Collection of the Knox County Library, Knoxville, Tennessee. It was also recorded in 1956 by Ann J. Smith and Eldah Bell Amick. Their record appears in Knox County Cemetery Records, Vol. 2, a manuscript available in the McClung Collection of the Knox County Library. These earlier compilations were compared with the new listing; notes are included where appropriate. Most notes refer to the record of d'Armand et al. because of flaws in the Smith and Amick transcription, the worst of which is that their notes for this and the adjacent Ebenezer Methodist Church Cemetery were scrambled before or while their notes were being typed.

          About 1940 burials resumed in a new area east of the Ebenezer Methodist Church building (see Ebenezer Methodist Church Cemetery).
