Directions: FR1230 is also Lake Road 39-5 (lake road number signs are much bigger and easier to read than Farm Road numbers). So we will use them in these directions.

From Shell Knob: Take Lake Road 39-5 headed South. Go approximately 4 miles, till you find FR1233 on the left hand (south) side of the road. Stay on FR1233. You will come to a fork in the road, stay to the right, this is still FR1233. View this map The "old Brock School" is just past the junction, on the right hand side of the road. It is a white building, with a metal roof.

The cemetery is a small family plot located Approx. 200 Feet Southeast of the "Old Brock School"

Directions for a "native" - from a "native": Go into 'Old Shell Knob" turn South where the "old Church of Christ" use to set before it burned down. Go down the Ledgerwood hill, cross Mill Creek, up the Whisman hill, cross Mill Creek again, go up the Stockton hill, back down the Stockton Hill, then turn left like you are going to Bennie Carter's (Bennie has dead for years). Then turn right at Clarence Cooper's old place heading towards the Smith Ford or the fussy forty.
