I am looking for the Steen Cemetery located near Santuc, SC in Union County off of Willford Road. I have been to the GPS coordinates given in Find A Grave and there is nothing there. Photos posted on FAG were posted in 2004 but the poster has disabled messages. Can anyone help with the location of this cemetery? I am afraid it has possibly been scrapped clean in the last several years.

Hey!

Mind you, I don't KNOW, if you know what I mean...
but what I found was...

1) Be on (215) the Santuc Carlisle Hwy heading from
... the Monarch Hwy and going toward Carlisle

2) Turn Right onto Williford Road
... pass Lee Foster Road on your left
... keep straight

3) There is a private dirt drive was on your Right
... the driveway passes a home and then parallel's
... Williford road (keep going)

4) The dirt road then forks
... straight or to the right
... TAKE THE RIGHT path of the fork

5) The dirt road has a path/road LEFT
... ends in Steen Cemetery

Now, I'm no good with such stuff but
its supposedly at...

latitute 34.6581850
longitude -81.5653748

On google maps satellite, it does look
like someone is clearing away all the
trees!

:( Ack, I hope they've not plowed down
the gravestones!!!

If you find it, try and confirm a gravestone
by the name of James Rochester for me?

He married Louisa Ann Steen and they're
buried there (per family).

Thank you!
Happy hunting... and be careful its a lot
of nothing but woods out there!

Please let me know what you find???
Again, thank you!
