OLD BURIAL GROUNDS OF WARREN COUNTY, TENN. By MRS. BLANCHE BENTLEY
"One of the best known and first organized churches of Warren County was Liberty, a mile or so from McMinnville. As shown by his will, land was given by Thomas Wiltshire (Wilcher), the church house built and the church, Cumberland Presbyterian in doctrine, organized all in 1815. William Cheek Smartt is the reputed founder and he and John Allison, a Revolutionary soldier, were two of its first elders William C. Smartt, his wives, his venerable mother, and many descendants are buried in this peaceful enclosure which in the springtime, with its level grassy turf, its evergreens, flowers, and waving vines, looks very like a garden of the long ago. William C. Smartt was a commissioned general in the militia, but he won his spurs as a fighting man at Mobile under Jackson where he was promoted to the rank of major."
