Directions: From Clio take EE southeast or from the town of Flat Creek take EE northwest when you get to the four way intersection of EE and 2120 closer to Flat Creek turn North (Between the two towns only one farm road, 2120 goes north). Now follow this map, the newest Old Carney Cemetery is the yellow blob.
The first Oldest-Original Old Carney is located 1/4 mile NE from the above directions, back in the pasture by the Carney Branch.
Carney Branch is a little stream that runs into Flat Creek and is shown on the above map by the dashed lines to the west of the yellow blob.
Just above the banks of Carney Branch, is the Original Old Carney Cemetery. The site has a fence around it and is occasionally improved by relatives.
There were a lot of unmarked graves here that were not photographed.
Diana Cope took all the photos for this cemetery in August 2007.
Of interest in this cemetery is the burial of Jackson Carney and his wife who were murdered by his cousin George Moore. See Jackson Carney's entry for the story.
