Near the corner of Atoka Lane and Ft Henry Drive across from the Walmart.
After turning off Fort Henry onto Atoka Lane, there is an old asphalt driveway immediately on the right where there's room to park a car. Walk up the driveway to the top of the hill. Stay to the right (what remains of the Conkin house is to the left) , step over a fallen tree and walk into the woods, watching for thorns, and the cemetery is at the top of the hill just a little ways in. It is quite grown up with vegetation so it's easiest to see in the winter.
The graves are mostly all marked though some of the coffins must have collapsed as there are several depressions in the ground. There appears to be one adult grave that is undocumented, as there is a depression and a metal cemetery marker, but the plate or card it once held is missing. There also appears to be a small grave nearby marked by fieldstones.
