Floyd This cemetery is located about 1/4 mile south of Highway US-74 at Bethware, NC. Traveling east on US-74 between Shelby, NC and Kings Mountain, NC take the first Kings Mountain exit that you come to and go toward Kings Mountain. Take the first road to the right and this will be the road to the cemetery. There are some unmarked graves in this cemetery. I was there April 16, 2001 and started in the northwest corner.
