Go past the barn and turn right, then straight through another gate, once through the gate, go left up to the top of the hill approximately 1/4 mile. The cemetery is in a stand of trees surrounded by a chain link fence and barbed wire. On one side, at the bottom of the hill is Cherokee Creek and on the other is the Nolichucky River.
