The cemetery may be reached by taking Zebulon Road off Forsyth Road just north of Wesleyan College in Bibb County and following it into Monroe County for 9 miles to the point where Zebulon Road forks to the left with Moore Road. Take Moore Road for approximately 2 1/2 miles. The cemetery is seen on the west side of the road and is quite visible from the road. There is a house slightly northwestward from the cemetery occupied by the family of Buford Mallory. There are 6 cedar, 2 white oak and 1 pine trees standing in the immediate area of the cemetery.The cemetery is surrounded by a wrought iron fence, which for the most part is now separated into sections, some standing and some lying on the ground. The north end section is still in place and so is the gate which is on the northeast corner. All the sections of fence still seem to be in existance at the site. The burial area surrounded by this fence is approximately 8 feet wide by 18 feet in length.There is seen inside the fence one very large brick grave and one monument. The ends of the old brick grave stand approximately 4 feet square by 15 inches thick. There is a low brick wall connecting these ends on each side of the grave. No inscriptions are found in the brickwork, although the ends show an indenture where a plate type marker of metal, marble, or granite might have existed in the past. Standing approximately 4 feet tall on the north side of this brick grave is a white or light grey granite monument bearing inscriptions. The base of this monument is about 32 inces long, 18 inches wide and 10 inches high. There is a tablet standing on top of this base, being about 28 inches tall by 2 feet wide and 8 inches thick. The tablet is inscribed as follows:%0
