Go south on US 1 out of Rockingham NC for about 5 1/2 miles, and turn right onto Osborne Road. At the end of this road is a stop sign; turn right and go about 2/10 mile. On the left is a well defined loggers' access road labeled "South Gate." There will probably be a gate over the trail. Park and follow this trail for about 3/4 mile. Traveling down this trail, there are two large oak trees to the left of the trail. The cemetery is below those two trees. There is a drive through the brush and trees leading off this trail into the cemetery.

This cemetery is with-in a small enclose consisting of 6" x
6" by 4 ft. long concrete pieces laid end to end. There are
two gigantic oak trees in this cemetery. It is well off the
road, not maintained, but little liklyhood of being damaged
unless by the occassional hunter. All the stones are in
excellant shape, with one exception in which the stone has
broken off and then stood back up-right againt the bottom
part of the stone.

According to the Richmond County, NC GenWeb site there
are others buried here but a good search of the enclosure
and surrounding area gave forth no additional stones,
cemetery markers or any indication of any other graves.
