Nelson ADAMS, Cemetery- Highway 46(Yellow Creek Road) to Fanny Branch Road (gravel) On your right will be a gravel road that doubles back over your right shoulder. Turn on to it. Immediately on your left is a stub of a driveway. Turn left into it. Park. The cemetery is to your front left, just at the the crest of the knoll.If it is mowed you will see the headstones, otherwise you will have to wade the weeds... diagonally left about 100 ft looking for stones. Right now it is in good shape!
POINT OF INTEREST: As you leave, continue on your drive down Fannie Branch Road. Within 100 yards on your right is a pile of debris. It is a collapsed dwelling that was Nelson Adams' home. As recently as 1989 it was still standing. Though it was neck deep in brush, it appeared to be a salvageable, square one-story log home, at that time.
