From the main highway in Murfreesboro turn north onto Storey Road. In about a mile, at the "Y" turn right onto Vaughan Creek Road, continuing until just after you pass Willis Hare Road (Road 1356) on the left. Take the next road on the right which is road 1355 (while still in Northampton County) and the road becomes 1311 once you cross back into Hertford County. Within ½ mile of crossing back into Hertford County, look for Oak Grove and cemetery on the left.

This is a 'Black' cemetery, owned and maintained by the Oak Grove Methodist church in Como NC.

This is a complete listing of this cemetery, obtained when I walked and read all existing and legible stones and markers on May 15, 2006. You may contact me if you wish to view photos.
