Hwy. 55, at the line btwn Fuquay Varina & Holly Springs NC

Lat: 35°37'33"N, Lon: 78°49'18"W

Contributed by Shirley Olson, Mar 12, 2002 [shirley32olson@yahoo.com]. Total records = 27.

From the south side of Raleigh take beltline exit # 298 (Hwys. 70, 50, 401) (South Saunders St). Stay on 401 S. to Fuquay Varina, about 10 miles. Turn right at the traffic light onto Hwy. 55 West ( towards Holly Springs, Apex and Durham) and go 2-3 miles. Next to a pony ranch, on the left side of the road, is this tidy little cemetery.

A family cemetery, well cared for, no longer in use.

I surveyed this cemetery on Mar. 8, 2002.
