From US 60 at Barboursville take Alt. 10 to Route 10 and go toward Salt Rock, WV.  When you come to Upper Heath Creek Road (on your right) turn Right onto this road and go to the top of the hill.  At the top of the hill on your Left will be a old road that has a wire gate across it.  Take this old road up to the field and go to the very end of the field.  The cemetery will now be about 100yd. out in the woods.  The cemetery at one time had a fence around it is now gone.  The cemetery has been abandon and is overgrown with weeds and brush.

You need to get permission from the proper owner before going out to the cemetery.  Take the gravel road to the Right at the top of the hill and go to the last house.
