Geocache Description:

This short series is a record of my shame in failing to establish the actual existence of a given cemetery. Or my irritation at Google Maps in insisting that certain graveyards are tantalizingly close at hand, even though no other documentary sources even refer to these locations.

In this case, several sources show that this cemetery was extant at least once upon a time and has as many as 14 interments. And, you know, the road is even named after it. But I haven't been able to find either sight or signage for this mysterious location, nor have any coordinates or directions to the site been provided. I've driven V E R Y slowly along the road and haven't spotted anything likely. This calls for more research, but fundamentally I'm pretty lazy, so this mystery may never be solved. Apropos of nothing--evidently there's a semi-private disc golf course at one of these properties. I never knew that.
