In Glasva, from the intersection of Highways 234 and 301, go east on Highway 234 for 2.5 miles until you reach Old Sycamore Road. From Old Sycamore Road, go 1 driveway east on the north side of the road. Turn there and go north for .4 miles until you meet a dead end. Turn west and go up to the house. The cemetery is behind the barn about 50 yards from the house.

This family cemetery is in fair condition with one broken headstone and 2 headstones that have sunk into the ground. The burials are from the Parnham Family who once owned the Saint Claire property.

I visited this one on Feb 05, 2005.
