Maps showing location of the Cemetery

From Highway 31 South at McCains turn west (right) onto Bigbyville Road for 1/4 mile and then turn left onto (Perry) Cemetery Road. Continue south until the road bends west and goes by the old Perry Home on the right. Shortly after that turn north around a tree line for about 100 yards and the cemetery will be in a thicket about 200 yards northwest of the home. 


Looking from inside the cemetery stones are all around in this setting. Some scattered as far as 50 yards. Many old field stones probably for slaves and early settlers before memorial stones were widely available.
