From I 30, go south on Hwy 19, turn right on FM road 1146. To get to this cemetery one has to go through one pasture and through a gate into another pasture. People in that area knows where it is. Stop and get help. The cemetery was well kept, with many graves mound with dirt but no stones. Has a fence around it. This cemetery is very near, if not in, Rains county.
