Contributed by David Montgomery, Oct 28, 2003, last edited Aug 11, 2007 [dmont1734@comcast.net]. Total records = 225.

To get to the cemetery, from Collinwood, Tennessee, travel Tennessee Hwy. 13 south 4.1 miles and exit onto the Natchez Trace Parkway south. Go south on the parkway 1.3 miles. Turn right (west) onto Piney Road (1st road to the right) and go 4.6 miles to the cemetery. It is on the left side of the road across from the church.

Piney Grove Cemetery is located in Wayne County Tennessee southwest of Collinwood. The church and cemetery are located on Piney road. The cemetery is across the road from Piney Grove Free Will Baptist Church.

George & Nancy Vickery deeded the original one-acre of land for the cemetery and original church on Sep 13, 1909. Mr. John Weems deeded two more acres on Mar 18, 1916. More land was deeded to the church later for parking and the cemetery as well.

The following survey has been checked for accuracy of names & dates. All information has been taken from head and/or foot markers. I completed this survey on Oct 16, 2003.
