To reach this cemetery, in West Oneonta, from the intersection of Highways 205 and 23, go west on Highway 23 for .5 miles. The cemetery is on a slight hill on the north side of the highway.

This is a small family cemetery that is in fair condition. Some of the headstones were faded and very hard to read. The cemetery started in 1830. Most of the burials are from the Strait Family and their descendents.

I visited this one on Aug 09, 2008.
