My grandfather and grandmother, Augustus B and Ethel Waddle(Waddell) are buried in Beersheba(Bersheba) cemetary in Greene County, TN. There was an old church that was on that site that had a Masonic Lodge on the second floor of that building. My grandfather was a veteran of the Civil War on the Union side, as were most in East Tennessee and especially in Greene County. After the war his first wife died and he married my grandmother, a much younger woman. My father was born when my grandfather was 66. I was born when my father was 44 or 110 years later. The battle of Blue Springs was fought in Greene County during the war and a reenactment of that battle takes place each year in the fall.
