In Waynesboro, from the intersection of Highway 16 and Old Forge Road, turn north on Old Forge Road and go about 3-4 blocks. The cemetery is on the west side of the road with a fence around it.

A small, well taken care of, family cemetery. Most of the people buried there are related to John Hess.

I walked this cemetery on Sep 22, 2003.
