The Alexander Cemetery is an excellent example of a late 19th-century burial ground, with impressive obelisks and headstones. Of particular note is the iron Victorian grave enclosure located in the middle of the cemetery next to a tree. Civil War soldier, James m. Alexander is buried in this cemetery and fought in many battles during the war, including, Shiloh, Baton Rouge, and Murfreesboro. --Rutherford County Cemeteries Driving Tour.
