The Historic Gower Cemetery was established in 1816 by the Gower Family on Reverend William Gower's (1776-1851) land in the West Nashville area near Overall Creek. The Gowers were among the First Settlers of present-day Nashville, arriving in 1780. The cemetery has been restored by Dan Allen IV, Archaeologist and now being maintained on an ongoing basis to preserve this history. Thank you for your interest and support!
