County: El Dorado
Record count: 16

Ownership: Private property

Directions: Coming from Sacramento on Highway 50, take the El Dorado Hills Blvd. exit. After entering onto El Dorado Hills Blvd you will pass the golf course and take a right on Serrano Dr. Take Serrano to the end and turn right Silva Valley. Take Silva Valley all the way down to Clarksville Road and turn left. The cemetery sets way back by the highway and the only way to get to it is to go through the fields.

Background: This cemetery is located in the north part of what used to be the town of Clarksville. All that is left there is a couple of run down houses and a dilapidated Wells Fargo building as well as the large barn of the Tong Family.

This was originally the Railroad House Cemetery in Clarksville, but it was later claimed by the Jess Tong family. Unfortunately this is on private property now and you are not allowed to get to the cemetery, without first asking permission.
