From Raleigh Mississippi proceed North on Mississippi Highway 35 (MS 35) 4.9 miles to the intersection of Smith County Road 120 (SCR 120.) Turn Right (East) onto 2.6 Miles to the intersection of Smith County Road 119 (SCR 119.) At the intersection turn Left (Northeast) to remain on SCR 120. In approximately three tenths of a mile the paved road will turn into a dirt road. Continue approximately another tenth mile [four tenths of a mile from the SCR 119 & SCR 120 intersection. An abandoned logging road (now grass, but easily discernible) will be visible beyond a gate in the fencing at this point. Proceed Left (North) onto the logging road. The road will fork, bear left at that point and continue along the road to the cemetery, (it is approximately 550 feet from SCR 120.) Only a few stone or concrete markers exist, but numerous wooden crosses are still standing. After inspecting the crosses I could not find one with any legible markings to indicate who was interred. A pile of roughly 25 of the crosses also exists. The cemetery is surrounded by a chain link fence and it appears to be maintained. NOTE: This cemetery is on private property, clearly marked "No Trespassing," it would be a good idea to obtain permission before traversing same.
