DIRECTIONS TO CEMETERY:  From the intersection of Highways US 165 and LA 26 in
Oberlin, LA, go east on Hwy 26 for 8.7 miles to Fontenot Road. Turn left (east) 
one half mile. The Cemetery is on the right (south) about 1000 feet off the road.

This Cemetery has not been read. Its condition and the ownership of the surrounding 
land are unknown. 
The Cemetery could be of historical significance since it is on the southern end of 
Prairie Soileau. Camellia Denys' book COLE FOOT PRINTS states that "the inter-married 
families of Cole, Foreman and Simmons are found together in the 1830 Census of 
St. Landry Parish in the area of Bayou Dubonne."
