Floral Hill Memorial Park
Cemetery
![]()
Floral Hill Cemetery or Floral Hill Memorial Park is located near Ooltewah in Hamilton County, Tennessee. From the intersection of Bonny Oaks Drive and Old Lee Highway on the east side of I-75 at exit #7, take Old Lee Highway north 1.9 miles and turn right onto Apison Pike. Travel Apison Pike 2/10 mile and turn right onto Pattentown Road. Travel down Pattentown Road and cemetery is located in a curve on the right. We don’t know the story on this cemetery but it is horribly overgrown with weeds. The markers, when you find them, are very nice. This is not an old cemetery. But it is in terrible condition. A few graves are cleaned off but most are very difficult to find. Lots of temporary markers. Lots of unmarked sunken graves. There is no doubt that there are markers we missed. Surveyed by Linda Coulter & Jim Holcomb July 2001
