Resa,
Which Cemetery was this in?
I found this on Rootsweb for William Morgan Russell, but here he is married to Cordelia Freels, which the marriage would have occured the year after his first wife died, if indeed it is the same man, it doesn't show a first wife,but they don't always have all info here, just what ever the person is aware of that is posting this info.
I couldn't find anything else on this.

It was the Thompson Lewallen cemetary.
Also there was a Rosa Russell and a Thomas Russell. Rosa died the same day she was born in 1888.

I just looked to see what we have on the Russells in the History section under "Tennessee - Chronology" and in 1852 there was a Russell Lewallen mentioned with Andrew Lewallen in Scott County, Tennessee, so it appears that the Russells must have been connected to the Lewallens previous to 1852 in order to give a son the name of Russell..
Also, in 1881 James F. Lewallen married Mary Russell. This marker shows Mary Llewellyn to have married William Morgan Russell 1872 so it would have been before James married Mary Russell. Could James F. Lewallen have been Mary's brother?
