The cemetery is "on the right of the paved road from Prospect Church toward Belfast. About four miles southwest of Prospect Church. In 1945, the house (built in 1826) with this cemetery had a tall double row of cedars, which led to the cemetery on the opposite side of the road from the house." These directions are not clear enough to locate this cemetery and it is believed the Prospect Church no longer exists. Whether or not the old house still exists is not known. Belfast is a very small community as well, although the paved road mentioned may be Highway 56.
All the names listed in the 1945 survey are also listed in this cemetery. Most of the burials had no grave marker, but the names were inscribed on one large, tall monument. On 5 small stones around the large monument were found the following 5 burials: A. Reed Anderson, David L. Anderson and his wife, Mary, Paul Wright Holmes and Zelotes L. Holmes (d. 1914).
