DIRECTIONS
>From Candler, NC take Pisgah Highway South (Rt 151) a few miles until
you pass the Enka Fire Station.  The very next paved road on your left
will be Queen Road (not always marked).  The small plot is on the left
hand corner just as you turn.  Please note that the directions will
probably change shortly due to expansion to Pisgah Highway changes the
location of Pisgah Highway itself.  Queen road will probably be off of
'Old Pisgah Highway.'


LATITUDE/LONGITUDE
Not known (USGS ENKA, NC)

FIELD NOTES: 9/25/98
This site contains only 3 graves, but once contained 30 - 40 graves
according to locals.  Most of the graves were moved down the road to
Montmorenci Church/Cemetery (353204N 082413W) in the 1930’s.  It is
unclear why these graves were not moved at the time except that 2 are
infants.  The BYRD is unrelated to the infants.  This site is in
terrible disrepair and at the dividing line between right-of-way and
private property (the white house).  This site is obscure and with so
much construction in the area will probably not last long.
