From the intersection of Rtes 20 and 3 at Wilderness Center in Orange County, take Rte 3 one mile east. Turn right onto Brock Road at the traffic signal. Go 8.3 miles and turn left onto Piney Branch Road. The church is 1.6 miles down on your right.

This is an active cemetery on about 1.5 acres in a rural residential area in back of the church. The grounds were mowed and there was some tree and leaf debris at the time of my visit; otherwise, it appeared fairly well-maintained. There were several temporary metal gravesite markers being used as permanent markers.

I walked the grounds and recorded all gravestones and markers on Jan 31, 2012. This is a complete listing of identifiable gravesites as of that date.
