Traveling north on U.S. Highway 45E, just north of Bradford, turn left onto Tennessee Highway 105 West.  Approximately 3 miles turn left on Old State Route 5, or Old Trenton-Dresden Road.  Less than 1 mile turn right on Antioch Road.  Approximately 1 mile Antioch United Methodist Church (cemetery was transcribed November 15, 2002) will be on the left.  This cemetery will be on the right.
