Located by Ginger Creek approximately 350 feet southwest of Model, Tennessee Post Office, and 400 feet west of the old iron furnace. The Bass Cemetery was filled in 1902 and the stones were laid at the edge of the field under a persimmon tree. TVA cemetery site explorers found only the three graves.

Note: The following surnames are in alphabetical order. However, we have chosen to not alphabetize the given names in order to group the spouses and children. Basically, I have put the names in the same order as in the Cemetery Book. The Cemetery Book had numerous "typos" and other errors. I have tried to correct errors as I find them, but I'm sure that I have missed others. And, of course, I may have introduced other errors as I re-enter the data from the Cemetery Book to the Web Page. If you find an error, and you can document your correction, please email me, and I will make the necessary change. The locations are those given in the Cemetery Book, and are not always clear to those not familiar with the county. We will try to improve directions as time permits. If you can give me clear directions to a cemetery that can be followed by someone who is not familiar with Stewart County, please forward those directions to me to be included on our Cemetery Page. Thank you for your patience.
