From Metaline Falls take Lehigh Hill Rd for about 2.3 mi. Take the turn off to you right at the dirt road before the end. The cemetery can be seen from the road in just a short time. From Lehigh Hill Rd it is about .2 mi, out in the field to your right. You will see a grove of trees, where the cemetery is.

This is a family cemetery which has not been used since 1951, according to the headstone dates. It does look cared for, although no one is there a lot of the time, with the neighbor watching it at those times. I suggest you get permission to visit it.

I visited and surveyed this cemetery on Aug 18, 2002. I have a photo of each marker if anyone should want one.
