Travel south on highway 57 out of Benndale, Mississippi. 
You will go 3.1 miles and on your left you will see Mixon 
Lake Road. Take this left hand turn and now go 1.4 miles 
where the road will "Y", you will take the left turn at 
this "Y" onto Dogwood Drive. You will now travel about .4 
tenths of a mile and as you round a curve to your right, 
there will be a small grassy driveway on the right, this is 
the road leading into this cemetery.  The cemetery is 
surrounded by a chain link fence and all known graves had 
headstones. I was told by a person that lives near the 
cemetery, that not too many years ago this cemetery was 
virtually unknown to anyone living in this area. When it 
was discovered and word got out about the cemetery being 
there, some people came and cleaned it up. She didn't know 
who cleaned it up or if these people were in anyway kin to 
those buried here. I have been unable to locate any other 
information as to ownership of the cemetery. Jimmy Trussell 
walked the cemetery on the 27th of December 2007, and 
information was taken from headstone inscriptions.
