Summary

Burial Site of Polly Finlay, Davy Crockett's first wife.

At the Age of 18, Polly Finlay married Davy Crockett in Jefferson, Tennessee. Five years later in 1811, the family moved to Franklin County, Tennessee on some land overlooking Beans Creek. Polly was the mother of three of Davy's children, raising them at their house on this land at a time when Davy was off volunteering for Andrew Jackson's army. On June 11, 1815, Mrs. Crockett died and was buried at a small cemetery on the property. Eventually Davy married again and the second wife Elizabeth lived many years after Davy's death at the Alamo.
