FindAGrave:  “Cemetery is east of Jonah in a field about a hundred yards north of SH 29 on property owned by Robert R. & Jarri L. Jones of Georgetown, TX. Call them at 869-4979 for permission to visit this cemetery. Mail box on the property just to the West is 10253 SH 29. Drive in the driveway to the north and park on the shoulder west of the cemetery. The iron fence around the cemetery is easy to see and only a short walk across the field.  The cemetery was formerly in a grove of hackberry and chinaberry trees that shed back, limbs and berries on the cemetery. Practically all the trees were dead and in March 2012 they were all cut down and burned by Robert Jones.  The gravestones are erect and in good condition as of 31 Mar 2012.”
