Where is bellamy cave

I have done research myself, and maybe we can share what we know. Thank you. Awesome research! Ransom Morrow was my grandmother's great-great grandfather. Pretty cool learning about our family's scandalous past!

Peter F. Bellamy was my 2nd great grandfather. I have his clock. His daughter Lillie was my great grandmother. If you come across any photos of the Bellamy family or their home you can contact me at csilberblatt att. Hello, I'm doing some research for a historical project and would love to listen to your podcast, but it seems like the link is no longer working.

Could you possibly send me a link to listen? I'm on a very tight deadline so hoping you see this soon. Please email me at emma.

Ransom Morrow was my 4th Grandfather. I find that Ransom and Dr Bellamy was pretty tight. As far as the cave goes, it was used for many other things besides 'hiding bodies". I would like to know more about this, and also any information and photos people are willing to share, I would love it.

You can contact me at james. Tuesday, February 21, Bellamy Cave Murders. We're going to take a quick break from Elisha's story and jump to some more sensational news. A few weeks ago I was editing a Wikipedia article for a homework assignment. Somehow, while I was editing, I discovered that there is a cave in Tennessee called Bellamy cave. More distracted research showed that the cave is located in Montgomery County, Tennessee--the same county where Elisha Bellamy had his family farm!

Curious, I probed deeper. Using a Google search, I found a newspaper article mentioning Bellamy Cave. I clicked on the link and an article popped up talking about the "Bellamy Cave Murders. Why would Elisha's grandson be listed as an accomplice to the murders? My ancestor was in prison? Excitedly--and a little stunned--I ran to tell my roommates. In particular, the caves in the park are deep and dark and even trained cave divers require extensive experience in these types of conditions to safely deal with the hazards encountered in O'Leno Park.

There, it disappears underground through at least two swallets or sinkholes, one known as River Sink and another further upstream near Vincent's Landing. The river then travels underground for about three and a half miles until it resurfaces again at the River Rise. This area between the River Sink and the Rise has many sinks and ponds, the largest being Sweetwater lake. Unfortunately, they are normally filled with tannic water and have never been very attractive for divers. One of the first people to explore this area was Woody Jasper who did several dives in River Rise starting in He was able to explore about feet towards the north, but the low visibility, about five feet, made it too difficult to continue.

Exploration into what would become known as Old Bellamy Cave first began in when a landowner asked Al Heck and Jerry Murphy to check out a dark, duckweed covered sinkhole on his property. The pair soon realized that they had discovered a major cave system.

By early , with the help of Woody Jasper, Mike Tennant, and Jason Richards, the cave had grown to three separate entrances and over 10, feet of explored passage.
