US 281 and Ks Hwy 9 north 1 mile to 250 road turn East 4 miles turn south 1/2 mile sits on East side.

Roy Dean Bell cares for the cemetery grounds and also owns the land that it is on. When the photos were taken the cemetery was pretty overgrown due to a illness in the family so they were unable to tend to it for awhile. The cemetery normally is in very good condition.

Robert Gillis and I walked this cemetery in July of 2005. This includes all existing and legible headstone readings.
