To get to Carter's Chapel cemetery, you need to go north on SR. 121 from Blackshear Ga., past SR. 32 about 3 miles to Scuffletown Rd., across the Bacon County line and look for a sign that says "Carter's Capel Church", turn right to the dead end and turn right then turn left at the first road and you will see it ahead of you on the right.
