To reach this cemetery, driving north on Hwy 65, turn right or east onto Edgewood and continue for about 2.75 miles. The Cemetery will be on the north side of Edgewood, just west of Five Points Road.

This cemetery is also known as the United Brethren Cemetery. It is mowed, but stones are falling over. The most recent burial was in 1915. The current owner is Franklin Township, since 1993.

I walked and read this cemetery on Sep 24, 2007 using a digital camera. This includes all existing and legible headstones and markers.
