To reach it, take California State Route 49 to Sutter Creek. On the north side of town, turn from SR 49 onto N. Amelia. At the stop sign cross to Mahoney Mill Road. A short distance on the right will be Cemetery Road that leads directly into the old cemetery as well as the Sutter Creek City Cemetery. The date given on the gate for the cemetery is 1854. The oldest tombstones that can be read however are from 1871, for Joseph Swift, a Native of New Bedford, and William Harris, a Native of Cornwall. The cemetery is owned by the IOOF organization. It is the final resting place for pioneers, miners, and settlers who contributed to the establishment and growth of Amador County.
