When you pass the blinking light at Kraft Paper Mill Road, continue on for about 8.0 miles. Turn right on Newsome Road (just before the parish Line), and continue for 1.7 miles. Turn right onto Sasha Road [Cannon Cemetery sign at this point], and continue for .4 miles. Turn right onto narrow gravel road JUST BEFORE THE GATE (which may be opened or locked). The road to cemetery is always open, only .1 miles from the gate. The property is located in the woods, is very old, but well maintained and fenced, about an acre in size.
