Paris Cemetery
The Paris Cemetery is located at 57 Dry Fork Road. It is located west of
road and across creek about 1/4 mile. When the road dead ends at old house
walk to left thru gate. Go to left of first barn up steep hill. Cemetery is located
on top of the hill. Although the cemetery is not maintained it is located in a remote
and beautiful place. By traveling across hill through woods it would be less than 1/2
mile to the Paris/Parris cemeteries on Pigg Branch Road.
