Rocky Cemetery

Rocky Cemetery is 8 miles out of Johnson City going west on Highway 290.
You will cross Rocky Creek and the highway will curve slightly to your left and you will be
going up a slight incline,  just before you reach the top you will see a road going off to your left.
There is a sign that says Pleasant Valley. You will take this left turn and the cemetery will be
on your right about 2 miles down the road. There is also a church there.
