Wake County, NC - Penny Cemetery ~~~~~~~~~~ 6/20/2007 Penny Cemetery Golden Heights Rd. Middle Creek Twp., Wake Co., NC From Lake Wheeler Rd. (SR 1371) intersection with Penny Rd. (SR 1379), take Penny Rd. (only runs west) for a very short distance (maybe 1/8 mile), then bear right on to Yates Mill Pond Rd. (SR 1381). Pass a Wake Co. Recycling Site, (about another 1/8 mile) and turn right on to Golden Heights Dr., an unpaved road. Drive about 1/4 mi. to the cemetery on the left in a patch of woods. N 35° 43' 05.5" W 78° 41' 37.7" This road borders "Historic Yates Mill Park", and the cemetery is in a lovely serene setting, hidden from the hustle and bustle that exists a few miles away. A fence surrounds the graves and flowers are planted by the path leading to the gate. I visited this cemetery and recorded from headstones all that was readable.
