Sweet Home Cemetery

This is an African-American cemetery located about 1 mile east and 1/2 mile north of Katie. From the 4 way stop at Katie, drive west about 1 mile.  You will come to where the road forks.  One fork is paved and one is gravel.  Take the paved fork.  It will cross a small bridge just past the fork.  Drive on west till you start uphill and before the top of the hill,  turn north.  This is the only road you can turn north .   Drive on north down this road.  You will come to a gate on the west side of the road just before you come to a brick house on the east side of the road.  You should see the old church house off to the west,  just before you come to the gate.   From the gate, just follow the dirt trail and it will lead straight to the church, where you will find the cemetery to the north side.

I was sent this information thru email and when my computer crashed the email was lost, but it did not site their original source, so if the original subscriber does not wish this to be posted here then please let me know and I will remove it immediately.
