According to the findagrave website: Cemetery notes and/or description: From Chester, Texas go south on Hwy 287 toward Woodville for 2.6 miles. Turn left onto CR 2565 just beyond Mt. Zion Church and continue for 0.9 mile. Turn left onto a small dirt road, which is an entrance to the Harrison Springs Hunting Club. There is a locked gate. From this gate, travel 1.1 miles and turn right. Go 2.3 miles and turn right for 0.3 mile. Turn left and cemetery is 1 mile further on the right. The site is very thick with brush and the headstones are difficult to see.

In order to visit this cemetery, one must have permission from an officer of the Harrison Springs Hunting Club, and probably should have a guide. (according to the TYLER COUNTY TEXAS GRAVESTONE INSCRIPTIONS Compiled by Jim W. and Ann Crews Laird).

The GPS map is only very approximate to indicate the general location.
