******************DIRECTIONS TO THIS CEMETERY************

FROM I-65 TAKE EXIT 312 (HWY 157) (CULLMAN) EAST TO AL
HWY 69. CONTINUE NORTH ON 69 APPROX. 25 MILES TO ARAB, AL. 
TURN RIGHT (SOUTH) ON US HWY. 231. GO APPROX. 3.25

GO NEARLY 1 MILE TO THE STOP SIGN AND TURN LEFT (NORTH) ON

BETTER CONDITION THAN YOU FOUND IT.  IT IS ON PRIVATE 
PROPERTY, THOUGH THE CURRENT LAND OWNERS DO NOT MIND

I DID THE LAYOUT FOR THIS CEMETERY IN ROWS.
THE ROWS START ON THE EAST SIDE CLOSEST TO THE ROAD 
AND CONTINUE NUMERICALLY TO THE WEST.  THE GRAVES ARE NUMBERED
IN ORDER STARTING CLOSEST TO THE HOUSE (SOUTH) AND GOING NORTH.

THERE COULD BE GRAVES THAT HAVE BEEN 
FORGOTTEN OR NEVER HAD MARKERS.  IF ANYONE HAS INFORMATION,
OR CORRECTIONS ON ANY OF THESE, YOU MAY EMAIL ME AT THE
ADDRESS ABOVE.  CORRECTIONS WILL BE ADDED AT A LATER 
TIME AS FOOTNOTES TO THIS PAGE.  UPDATES WILL BE ADDED 
AS NECESSARY AND TIME ALLOWING.
