GILLION COLLINS BRANCH CEMETERY

Location:  Pinetop Knott Co, Off 584, past Greasy Burgey Cemetery take Collins Branch, go to the left, turns to gravel, then to Dirt (Mud) do not go up there without a 4 wheel drive you will get stuck. Go about a half mile up the dirt road, there is a pull off with a red rag tied to the tree to mark( I can not promise the rag will be there), cross the creek go to straight, take the first path to the left, you will see old gate.
