When traveling from Toone on Hwy 138 toward Cloverport, turn left on old Bolivar/Cloverport Road. This road makes a sharp left turn at about 1 1/2 miles. Proceed another mile, and park on the right, at the edge of what was the Dan Jones farm. There is a new log cabin built on the adjoining lot. From the road, proceed up the old dirt roadbed to the left, and continue into the Jones pasture land, which is fenced. Continue to the far right corner of this property, crossing a fence onto the Harris Yarbrough farm. Go down the hill, cross the creek, and up the next hill. The cemetery is located atop a tall hill about 200 yards from the Jones fence. When I visited, some of the stones were down, and some completely covered with leaves and vines. Children's gravestones were ornate with animal carvings. Some monuments had urns and other decorations. There were numerous unmarked graves. Martha Almer, daughter of J.G. and Louisa J. Chism b.
