Do you know of Camp Ground ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Camp Ground. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Camp Ground.<1>

Our sources for Camp Ground (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Camp Ground other than they indicate that Camp Ground would be found somewhere in White County, Tennessee.
