This cemetery is on private property. Obtain permission from property owner before visiting this cemetery.
Directions:
Go south of Reelsville one mile, then turn right on Co Rd 875S. Go ¼ mile west to the A & C stone quarry (you need to sign in at the office). Go through the stone quarry lot all the way to the northwest corner of the last hay field. Go to the west for about 30 yards, almost to Big Walnut Creek. From this point there is an old road going to the north. Follow that old road up the hill and continue north for about 300 yards to the cemetery. The cemetery is scattered out over a large area. Make sure you are on the farthest plateau to the west. As you might expect, a hand held GPS will really help in locating this cemetery. 
Condition: Poor
Cemetery is on a ridge between two ravines. Some stones are still standing, but several should be repaired and reset. There are many young trees in the area that need to be cut and removed. The cemetery is spread over a wide area along what was once an old road. There are probably more stones in the area. Property owner is receptive to this cemetery being restored.
The number at the left of each name corresponds with the map of the cemetery.
