Directions:

From the square, drive north on Franklin Rd/US 27 10.7 mi to Highway 54. Turn right (east) on Highway 54 and drive 1.6 mi. Look for where a pipe line crosses Highway 54. Just before the pipeline is a dirt road heading to the northwest closed with a metal gate. Park the car and walk up the dirt road about a quarter of a mile. The road becomes a path, and eventually disappears. Use a GPS unit to locate the cemetery.

Comments:

There were a number of unlettered graves marked by field stones.
