Directions: From the intersection of Hwy. 401, (N. Main St.), and Judd Pkwy.,
(SR 2768), in Fuquay-Varina, go 1.6 mi. south  on N. Main St. to the intersection 
of Hwy. 401 and Hwy. 42 (Academy St.) and turn west (right) on to Hwy. 42.  
Go .4 mi. to Bridge St., which intersects from the right. The Jones Soccer Field 
is visible on your right. On the left side of Hwy. 42, across from the Soccer 
Field, accessed by a dirt road, and set back several hundred feet, is the private 
family cemetery of the Jones Family.

The cemetery is on private property and may only be accessed or viewed with the 
permission of the owner. The cemetery is located on a land grant dating back to 
1790, (date supplied by Mr. Warren Jones) deeded to Etheldred Jones, a veteran of 
the Revolutionary War who served as a Captain in the North Carolina Militia, and 
has been in continuous ownership by Jones family descendants since. Mr. Warren 
Jones walked through the cemetery with me and graciously defined the relationships. 

Surrounded by ancient oaks and cedars, the cemetery is neatly kept and well cared 
for. There is room for more family burials.
