Rt. 21, about 2 miles south of Mineral Wells. This cemetery is located beside the Big Tygart Cemetery, in the upper left corner.

This cemetery was moved to the Big Tygart Cemetery in 1966 due to the construction of Interstate 77. Three graves were moved to Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Parkersburg. There were many unmarked graves at the original cemetery site.

I walked and transcribed this cemetery on Jun 08, 2003.
