Archer (garcher@wdn.com) Location: From Utica go north on Co. Rt. 1/2 1.2 miles just beyond the intersection of 1/2 and Co. Rt. 6/7. The cemetery is on right side of road; access is through a private drive, chained, posted "No Hunting or Tresspassing" - no dwellings in sight but opposite the drive is a farm house on left. Follow the drive to a trailor, road climbs and swings to cleared area and keep bearing right. At top of rise look down to the right toward trees covered with growth where the cemetery is located. Condition: Fenced and cleared at one time but will not be cleared now as property is owned by hunters. It is a large cemetery but about half full of stones.
