Keep following this road (make no turns) and you will eventually cross a bridge. Note that the road turns from gravel to dirt and is very steep. ***WARNING ABOUT THE BRIDGE*** It is very old; constructed mostly of wood. Beth Watson makes absolutely no guarantees as to the safety of the bridge, and neither she nor the Cemetery Transcription Project shall bear any responsibility whatsoever for any accident or injury stemming from any attempt by any person to cross this bridge. At about 3.8 miles (from the beginning of the gravel road), turn right at the crossroad (sign points to Port Wine and Scales). When you get to the historic marker at Port Wine, stay on the road that veers to the right (NFS road 21N59). The cemetery is just a bit up that road. Some of the persons listed here are from a previous survey, or from cemetery records. There are many unmarked graves.
