Odd Fellows Cemetery

ODD FELLOWS

CEMETERY

This Cemetery was established in 1880 by the Banner Lodge Chapter of the Odd Fellows Fraternal Order. This Cemetery was enlarged by the Daughters of Zion in 1881, the Good Samaritans in 1884, and the Silver Moon Chapter of the Odd Fellows in 1885. It is the final resting place for many of Knoxville's early noted black preachers, political figures, educators, business pioneers, and other outstanding community leaders.
