HUGGINS CEMETERY Huggins is an old family cemetery at Gravel Hill. From Selmer take Hwy 45 S until you get to the red light at Eastview. Turn left on Hwy 57. Go about 2 miles, turn left on Tom Baker. About 3/4 mile is a little road to the left. The cemetery is down this little lane not too far from the main road. For another way, see instructions on how to get to Gravel Hill cemetery. If you have ancestors buried in Huggins cemetery, you probably have some buried at Gravel Hill. In the summer of 1994, a confederate monument was put in Huggins Cemetery for James Monroe Huggins. Huggins was a private in Newsom’s Tennessee Calvary of the Confederate Army. From Cemeteries of McNairy County by Nancy Wardlow Kennedy
