Land owner: unknown
Date added to WVCPA register: February 2012
Condition of cemetery**: Fair (June 2005)
Accessibility: Located in Summers Co, Green Sulphur Springs (On North Side of I64 exit). Going west on I64, turn right on exit. At intersection, turn right. The Lick Creek Baptist Church is on left (north) side of road. To the west of the church is a small road. The road forks, one going to a house, the other fork (dirt) going through a field and up a hill (road is rough). Take the fork to the right through the field and up the hill. About 1/4 mile up the hill (or less), the cemetery is on the left. Cemetery is somewhat grown up, but is in good condition considering its very old age.

In the photo above (facing West), you can see the overpass to the interstate and the road paralleling the interstate. The church is behind us. The gravel road to the right is the road that forks about 100 yards out of sight.

** Condition of cemetery as observed on the given date -
