Thanks to Jeanie Lowe for the photos included here.

Directions: From Rte. 125, turn north on to Horse Barn road at the green markers of 3.75 N. State Rte. 125 and 10.5 W. Horse Barn Road. Follow Horse Barn road for about 3/4 mile to Bunn Road and turn on to Bunn Road at the green markers of 10.5 Horse Barn Road and 4.50 N. Bunn Road. Follow North Bunn Road for about a mile and you will see the cemetery on the left side of the road. The cemetery is kept mowed. A few of the stones are standing, but many of the stones are in piles within the cemetery.

Note from Jeanie: The other day while Stan & I were out, he climbed the fence and took photos of several of the stones in this cemetery. He didn't have chalk and other tools with him so the photos are not very clear. At first I didn't think there were many stones in this cemetery - however when Stan walked to the back, he found many stones in piles around trees." Jeanie has promised that sometime soon they will go back to get clearer photos and a more complete reading of this nicely mowed, but abandoned cemetery.
