This cemetery is located south of the junction of CR-120 and CR-121 at the edge of a farm field and the adjacent woods. The cemetery and surrounding land is owned by Kathryn Wilson and Beth Davis, 151 CR 120, Georgetown, Texas 78626.

This small abandoned cemetery is in a good state of preservation as it is located on a concrete slab and enclosed by an iron fence. On Nov. 2, 2010 this cemetery was cleaned of branches, a fallen tree and a number of trees growing in the iron fencing were sawed down and removed and the concrete slab cleaned. The brush around the fence was cut and removed. Later in November the remaining dead Hackberry trees around the slab were cut down and removed and one can now walk completely around the cemetery and it can be seen from a distance.
