IMPORTANT NOTES IF VISITING

The cemetery is in overgrown woods behind very expensive houses and not easy to find, especially if no one has used a weedeater on it recently. If it has rained recently it will be muddy on the road up the hill. It is better to walk unless you have 4WD and if you drive just keep going on Cedar Knob Road as if it did not end where pavement ends.  If you can go with someone who has been there before, it will be easier. Also, most of the neighbors are friendly and will help you find the cemetery.
