KIRKLAND CEMETERY

KIRKLAND CEMETERY

This cemetery is located off the New Forrest Hwy. Follow the signs to Sand Hill Church and take a left after the Church. The cemetery is down a dirt road on the right side with an iron fence around it. At one time it was called Rock Hill Cemetery. The iron fence is one of a few, if not the only one left surrounding a cemetery in Coffee County.
