Leak Cemetery
Surveyed by Woodford Sherrill and Jack Ingram
Approaching Rockingham from the North on U.S. #1, go passed the first traffic light (within the city limits)
and turn right on Scotland Avenue. Stay on Scotland Ave. and go past three streets on right, namely Ann Street,
Carolina Drive, and Cumberland Circle. When you have driven l/2 mile from U.S. #1 a "Dead End" highway sign will
be on your right. At this point, the cemetery will be visable. It is about 100 feet off Scotland Ave.
If approaching on Hwy #1 from the South at the First Methodist Church (in downtown Rockingham), Scotland Avenue
will be the 5th street on the left. (Directions by R. Carol McLean)
