This cemetery is located on the Northside of Jacksonville. It can be found by going north from downtown Jacksonville on Main Street, then turn on West 17th Street. The cemetery is located in the middle of the block between Laura and Silver Streets in a residential neighborhood at 138 W. 17th Street. At one time this was a churchyard cemetery but today, no church is standing and only a few remaining graves markers are standing. It is partially enclosed with a fence. Elder E. A. Lindsley started the church and later gave the church building along with cemetery to Advent Christian Church. At the time of Elder Lindsley's church, this was a well-to-do white neighborhood called Springfield, but over the years, the personality of the community has changed to an inner-city African American neighborhood. No recent burials noted, a few unnamed grave sites noted, and most of the deaths were before Florida Death Certificates. At times on documents, the elder's surname is misspelled "Lindsey".
