From Interstate 64, take exit 18 (Merritt Creek) and
go North, about 3 miles, to Route 2. Turn right onto Route 2 and go about
6.5 miles.
Directly across from Green Acres, which will be on the left, turn right, then
immediately right again onto Old Route 2. Then make a left turn onto Clutts Hill
Road and go to the top of the ridge. At the top, turn right and go to the
first dirt road on your left. Take this road for about 0.2 miles. Go to the
first gap in the fence on the left side of the road. The cemetery is
located a few
hundred yards forward in the field. It is fenced, but very overgrown.
