Description

The Dyer Cemetery contains the burial of Civil War Soldier William Robert Dyer. Dyer was born near Eagleville and was in Company D, 11th Tennessee Cavalry. During the Civil War, Dyer kept a diary, which is now located in the National Archives. After the war, Dyer returned to Rutherford County and became a farmer on his land near the cemetery. There have been numerous reports of strange things happening in this cemetery, and many people believe it to be haunted. --Rutherford County Cemeteries Driving Tour
