Dear Mrs. Miliken:
We have received your recent letter and information regarding the listing of the Mt.
Olivet Cemetery on the National Regi ster of Historic Places. We vvould be most happ y to
work with you on this project. Perhaps the best advice I can offer vvould be to enlist the
help of Dr. C. Van West at the Center for Historic Preservation at Middle Tennessee
State University. His office has completed a statewide assessment of rural AfricanAmerican
churches in Tennessee. and has recently written a National Register
nomination for an African-American cemetery in Sullivan County. Dr. \Vest is very
familiar with this t ype of resource. and he may have a graduate student'' ho could work
on this nomination as a class project. He can be reached at the following address:
Dr. C. Van \\1st
