Hwy. 122), across the road fromCountry Oaks Golf Course, about 4 miles north of Thomasville, Thomas Co., Georgia. What remains of this cemetery is within a chain link fenced in area. It sits back from the highway in a field. This information is from a physical survey: These graves are in one enclosed area.
