There are many more graves here but they only have rocks for markers.
Directions: From highway 7 at Blackey, turn north onto highway 3408. Go exactly 5/10 mile. There is a small gravel road which turns to the left into the creek. It crosses Albert Snobs property. Go across the creek and up the hill (on a gas road) exactly 4/10 of a mile. Park at the gas wells. From there if you look straight up the hill you are looking at the cemetery even though at this point you cannot see it. It is approx. 500 yards up the hill.
