To reach this cemetery from Silver Springs, drive west about 5 miles on US Hwy 50 and turn north on Topaz St. Drive another half mile to the cemetery on the west side of the road.

This cemetery is somewhat new with the earliest burials going back to the 1960s. So far, only about a quarter of the cemetery has been used. The cemetery is in good condition and still in use.

This is a complete list from all existing and legible headstones which I visited in Sep 2006.
