Directions: From downtown Vernon, go south on SR 79 approximately 3 miles. 
Turn left onto Fanning Branch Road, go to end of pavement (approx. 2.0 miles). 
Turn right (west) on Holmes Valley Road and go 0.5 mile. There is a 
communications tower on the south side of the road and the cemetery is about 
200 feed east of the tower, The entire property is fenced. A walk through gate 
is provided for access.

Note: The cemetery has not been maintained for many years and trees, underbrush, 
weeds, etc. are present. I found concrete and / or limestone markers for at least 
nine graves not identified. There are pieces of broken concrete scattered about 
that probably came from grave markers also.  The cemetery is located in Township 
2 north, Range 15 West, Section 21.  The only three readable markers I found are 
listed below.
