Facebook user submitted comments:

"My Grandmother and several relatives are buried there and it's not in good shape. It is located on a hill above a creek on a gravel road.

When you get to the Bridge at Sinking Creek make a left right before the bridge and go back about 2 miles and Graveyard is on the right with this sign nailed to a tree.

 "It's on pretty high ground, and Mash Creek is fairly small. The road up to it might be more rutted, but it's better to park out on 250 and walk up."
