The Holland Family cemetery is located off of the Hawkins Road, north of Walnut Cove in Stokes County.  It is best reached by asking permission to enter a gated community (in the country) at the point where Hawkins Road crosses over the upper branch of Neatman Creek.  One has to follow the graveled private road into the woods for about a mile on to the land of Billy Mitchell.  It would be best to stop and ask one of the families inside the gated community directions to the grave.  The grave is located at the edge of a field only a short distance from the old chimney left standing from the Holland family home.  The cemetery is enclosed by a wire fence and has been maintained by family members.  It consists of two rows of graves plus a third single grave. There are twenty graves.  Seven graves are marked as follows:
