Traveling south from Leakesville, Mississippi on highway 63 for about 9 miles, you will come to the intersection of highway 63 south and highway 594. Turn left off of highway 63 onto highway 594. Travel on this road 1.8 miles and turn left onto Herman Denmark Road. Immediately on your left will be the cemetery.

The Alford Family Cemetery is surrounded by a chain link fence on all sides and it is in good condition.

This small family cemetery dates back to about 1957, judging from the stones, and is owned and maintained by the Alford Family.

I walked this cemetery on Apr 06, 2007. All information was taken from headstone inscriptions and temporary grave markers.
