In Saint Anthony, from the intersection of Highways 15 and 76, go south on Highway 76 for .4 miles until you see a dirt road and a sign that says "Elder Cemetery". Turn onto that dirt road and go east for .2 miles them north for .1 miles. The cemetery is sitting on on the west side of the road.

This is a very old family cemetery that is in good condition. Most of the burials are from the descendants of the Elder Family who moved from Saint Mary County to Frederick County Maryland in the 1730s. Some of the stones were very hard to read due to the aging of the headstone.

I walked through this cemetery on Mar 02, 2008.
