Take Highway 87  to Shelbyville, turn west on F.M. Road 417, go to County road 1006 and turn right.  About one mile there will be a 90 degree left break in the road.  Go about 100 or so yards, there is a mobile home on the right, just past the home is a dirt road, take this road to a gate onto Private Property.   About 1/2 mile north east is a creek, and past the creek about 1/4 mile is a wooded area and here the cemetery is located.  The cemetery is abandoned, however is believed to be in fairly good shape.  To commet on this listing please email Myron Bounds at address above.
