This small country cemetery, sometimes referred to as the Vanoss Cemetery, is located in section 9 (3 N & 4 B)
To reach it, you go east of the intersection of highways 177 and 19 six miles to Gaar Corner and then south three miles to the Vanoss School intersection. From that point you turn west and follow the road about one mile. The cemetery entrance is marked. The area itself is some 1/4 mile south of the road
