Directions From Interstate 35, take the route "DD" or Civil Bend exit (exit 72). Head west and go through the town of Civil Bend. After a mile you will come to St. Hwy 69. Turn right (north) and go 1/2 mile until Jordan Av. Turn left (west) on Jordan--you will cross Grindstone and Muddy Creeks--and go about 3 1/2 miles to 115 St. Turn right (north) on 115 St. and go 1 1/2 miles until Haven Rd. At Haven, turn left (west) and go 3/4 mile.** On the right (north) side of the road there is a house with occupants of the surname B****** [complete surname is omitted to respect privacy.] Turn right (north) here, going through their driveway to the cemetery, a distance of maybe 500 feet. The cemetery cannot be seen from Haven. Thanks to Arlene G. for help with these directions.
