                      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MITCHELL COUNTY

BUCHANAN CEMETERY on SANDY BRANCH

LOCATION:   From Roan Mountain Baptist Church on the Cane Creek road, 
drive up Sandy Branch Road.  After 0.5 miles the pavement ends.  After 
0.2 more miles turn right up a dirt road that is opposite a white house.  
There are no signs or markers at the junction.  You will wind up through 
the pines, and after 100 yards or so the cemetery is immediately visible 
on your left.

ACCESSIBILITY:   Easy, once you find it.  The road could be difficult 
                 in wet weather.

CONDITION:   Excellent.  A beautiful spot in the woods.
