From Meadows of Dan, drive west on Hwy 58 abpt 0.61 miles, turn south or left onto Hwy 614 (Squirrel Spur) and continue for 0.05 mile. Turn left or east onto State Hwy 601 (Bent Road) and continue for about 3mile. The cemetery will be on the right or west side of the road.

This appears to be a family cemetery, which is about 26 miles east of Hillsville VA. It was established in 1889.. There were some unmarked crosses. The cemetery has a fund for upkeep and is well kept.

I walked and collected this information Jun 01, 2010 from tombstone inscriptions. I have pictures of some of the graves.
