From Richmond follow route 243 to 255 which will take you to Kingsey and then to Kingsey Falls. From Danville, take route 255 or route 116. At the western edge of town you will see a small dead end road called Chemin Corriveau. The cemetery is a short distance on this road on your right.

This small cemetery is well maintained with a fence, gate and sign. It appears to have begun in the 1850s and is used today for an occasional burial of the areas remaining English speaking residents.

Susan Nutbrown, Julia MacDonald and I walked and read this cemetery on Aug 11, 2007 and made a complete recording from all legible tombstones.
