Nathan Bedford Forrest remains relocating from Memphis to Columbia

Relocation costs will be paid by Memphis Greenspace. The Tennessee Historical Commission was notified of the reinternment, in accordance with state statutes. Descendants, about five family members in Forrest s and Mary Ann Montgomery Forrest s lineage, have been seeking a final resting spot for Forrest s remains for a few years. Because no known person has a right or easement to the burial ground, which is now a park, the Shelby County court has jurisdiction in relocating the graves. The November court order also terminates the use of Health Sciences Park as a burial ground. The descendants named in the suit and Memphis Greenspace agreed to relocate the remains to Columbia in a previous May settlement.
