Correction to Graveside Info on Thursday

The Natchez graveside service is at the Natchez CITY Cemetery NOT the Natchez NATIONAL Cemetery. They are both on the same road. The address corrections have been made to the previous post. Directions to the family property remain the same.

The easiest way to get to the cemetery from the bridge is to go to the traffic light at the intersection of John R. Junkin (street leading from the bridge) and Canal. Turn left onto Canal and drive straight through town a long way until the street dead ends at Madison St.

Turn left onto Madison and immediately right onto Linton Ave. Follow Linton Avenue several blocks. You will cross Oak Street and see the Natchez Little Theatre on the right where Linton and Maple merge and become Cemetery Road, which just leads directly to the cemetery. Take the third gate into the cemetery and drive just past the side of the old office building. Folks will just have to park in the road and walk to the lot on a slope to the left of the road. There is a huge old cedar tree in that lot. It can't be missed.


If you are coming from US-84:
1. Turn LEFT onto US-61 S / US-84 W. <3.4>STRAIGHT to go onto DEVEREUX DR, keeping right, which becomes ST. CATHERINE. (If you find yourself on E. Franklin Street, continue straight anyway and you will come to S. Pine.)
3. Turn RIGHT onto S. Pine
4. Turn LEFT onto Madison
5. Turn RIGHT onto Linton Ave. Follow Linton Avenue several blocks. You will cross Oak Street and see the Natchez Little Theatre on the right where Linton and Maple merge and become Cemetery Road, which just leads directly to the cemetery. Take the third gate into the cemetery and drive just past the side of the old office building. Folks will just have to park in the road and walk to the lot on a slope to the left of the road. There is a huge old cedar tree in that lot. It can't be missed.
