In Cocke County, TN, from Newport, take the Asheville Highway (25-70E) to Del Rio. Turn right onto Route 107 and proceed to a “Y”. Take the right fork onto Ground Squirrel Road, then the first fork to the left onto Blue Mill Road. Proceed past Mulberry Gap Church and take the second road to the left past the church onto Norwood Road. Follow this road 1.1 miles. Turn right at the old empty Lloyd and Silas Norwood home. You must first get in touch with Sankie Waddell by phone in order to have the two gates here unlocked. This road is .4 miles and ends at the cemetery. A 4-wheel drive vehicle is necessary.
