On the Efland to Cedar Grove Road (SR #1004, at its SE intersection with Halls Mill Road (SR #1336) About 4 � mi south of Cedar Grove

This cemetery, which was established in 1834, is owned and maintained by the Fairfield Presbyterian Church. It is very well maintainted and still being actively used.

First survey was done in 1972. I have completed this last survey in August of 2003, using a digital camera, taking a photo of all existing and legible markers or tombstones. There were 15 unmarked graves.
