To reach this cemetery from the town of Millsboro take Rte 24 (John J Williams Hwy) east for 4 miles, turn right onto Warwick Road. (Rd 310A), proceed .8 miles. The cemetery is located in the field just north of the supply shed.

This is a very small family cemetery located directly in the middle of a working farm. It is not possible to get access to the cemetery when crops are planted, as there is no road or path leading to the stones. Permission is necessary, but not easily obtainable from the current landowner.

One overturned and mostly buried stone identified from records in Hudson & Tatnall’s Cemetery Records of Sussex County, Delaware, Tatnall p. 150, Hudson p. 550, Cemetery #495.

Dale Hart and I walked and read this cemetery, using a digital camera, on Jul 29, 2010. This transcription includes all existing and legible stones and markers at that time.
