FLOYD wdfloyd@rfci.net ==================================================================== FORK CREEK BAPTIST CEMETERY Polk County, NC By W. D. Floyd From Saluda, NC take Highway US-176 toward Tryon, NC and just when you get to the bottom of the valley and can see the creek and railroad track off to the south take the first road south. I believe there is a sign about “Pearson Falls” at the road. Cross the river and railroad track and then turn left on the first road. This is Fork Creek Road. Just follow it and the cemetery will be on the left. I was there April 6, 2000.
