From Salley, SC take Hwy 394 north (towards North, SC) for 1.5 miles, where Hazy Road (second dirt road) will then be on your right. Turn here, stay on this road for approximately one mile (you will encounter a hard, 90-degree left turn about half-way down Hazy Road). After navigating the hard curve, then turn right on the second dirt road past the curve, where an old, abandoned, two-story, white farmhouse will be immediately on your right. The cemetery is at the end of this road, approximately four tenths of a mile.
