The cemetery is located about one mile up McKowns Creek Road from U.S. 119. The road makes a slight left turn past a corn crib in front of the main brick residence which is located on a slight elevation across a small concrete bridge. Continue on McKowns Creek Rd. past the corn crib ~100 yds. or so and make a right angle turn. Proceed about 30 yds. (there is an old red storage barn on the right) and there should be an old gate on the left and a crude road that curves up the hill about 100 yds. to a knoll where the cemetery is located.
