AVERY COUNTY	

NICK PYATTE CEMETERY

LOCATION:   On Stamey Branch Road, about 0.2 miles southeast of Pyatte.   
At the top of a hill you will see two driveways across from a house with 
house number 2107.   If you are driving away from Pyatte the driveways are 
on your right.   Turn into the first one and follow it up the hill to the 
cemetery, which can not be seen from the road.

ACCESSIBILITY:   Easy.   (I wish to thank Mr Doyle Ollis for directions to 
this cemetery.)

CONDITION:   Excellent.  Stunning panoramic view of the mountains.

OLDEST DATED GRAVE:   # 1,   1904.
