The cemetery exists on private property and is behind a home and working farm. Please obtain permission from the property owner before attempting to access this cemetery. We cannot and will not provide this contact information.

From Paris Court Square, take 79 East toward Dover for approximately 7 miles. Turn left (North) on Buchanan Road and follow for approximately 3/4 mile. Turn left at the equipment driveway of ? Buchanan Road (which is a private residence and farm!) and drive past the metal barn on your right, heading due West. The cemetery is about 150 yards down the dirt road, behind the hog stockyard.

Travel time from Paris Court Square is approximately 15 minutes.

The Upchurch Cemetery sits on a hill overlooking what was and is still a very beautiful valley in Henry County's Eastern farmlands. A hog farm was built East of the cemetery in the last thirty to forty years and did not seem to be in use when I visited in early 2006.

The drive up to the cemetery is flanked by an old pasture fence and a few Winged Elm trees. The cemetery itself is surrounded by a chain link fence of generous size that bears its name in large green lettering. The cemetery looks like it is mowed regularly. A few stones were broken and chipped in places most likely due to age.

If you have interest in Jesse Upchurch, William Henry Jackson, Josiah Franklin Lee or Thomas Jefferson Wynns, please email me.
