branch. On the left is a dirt road leading into an area with forest on
the left and an open field on the right with young pines. Continue up this
road and around to the right. You will see a small patch of woods on the
left. Sanders Burial Grounds is inside these woods. Please visit this site
with love and care because efforts are being made to preserve the site.
