Entrance to cemetery. To get here you have to go through the gate at your right when you drive up and walk through what will likely be tall grass. None of the gates at this point are locked. You can see here Hugh Nelson's monument since it is the tall one to the center-right behind the boxwood.

View taken from the left of the entrance. From left to right the markers are Thomas F. Nelson (broken from base and laying against the wall), Francis Nelson, Dr. Meriwether, Hugh Nelson (behind boxwood), Anne Carter Nelson, Eliza Meriwether Massie and Mildred Nelson Meriwether.

To reach the cemetery take SR 600 off of the main road through Cismont and turn at this sign into the riding stables. From there take the dirt road to the very end past a one story house and multi-bay shed.

When I visited on March 22, 2014 the cemetery grass had been cut and it was in excellent condition.

The headstone of Thomas F. Nelson is leaning against the wall at the rear of the cemetery. Francis Nelson's is in front of Thomas'. Next is Dr. T. W. Meriwether.
