From Columbia take HWY 52 west to Cephus Rollins road (unpaved road). Turn left and go about 1/4 mile, look to your right you will see a farm road beside an open field, turn down this road and the cemetery is about 1000 feet ahead. A 5' chain length fence with a gate surrounds the cemetery. It is still being used and is maintained.
