Driftwood Cemetery is located in Jackson Township, southeast of Seymour. There is no sign to indicate the cemetery. A small roundabout for parking can be found at the southern end of the cemetery. Some older records may also refer to this location as Quaker Cemetery or Friends Cemetery. A survey in 1991 noted the presence of a building foundation and basement, which may be the remains of a meeting house.



Other small cemeteries in Jackson County have used (or continue to use) the names Driftwood, Quaker, and Friends, so take care to verify burial sites and records.



Directions: From Seymour, on the southwest side of the intersection of U.S. Highway 50 (East Tipton Street) and Interstate 65, drive south about 1.75 miles on Cloverleaf Drive (also known as the southwest frontage road, or County Road 1040 East). The cemetery is just south of the intersection with County Road 340 North, on the east side of the road.



The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) feature ID for the cemetery is 433691 (Driftwood Cemetery).



The cemetery is listed in the Cemetery and Burial Grounds Registry of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and in the State Historical Architectural and Archaeological Research Database (SHAARD) with Cemetery Record Number CR-36-116 (Driftwood/Quaker).
