Directions: From Bremen, KY, go north on KY-81 to Lynn City Road. Turn left (west) onto Lynn City Road. Go west to Old Salem Lane. Turn right (north) onto Old Salem Lane. Follow Old Salem til it dead ends at the train tracks. To get to the tracks you'll have to drive through someone's property. Stopping and asking permission may be a good idea. The cemetery is on the right of the road next to the tracks.
