If you search for a cemetery named Cane Creek in South Carolins on Find A Grave, you'll get two hits: a Presbyterian cemetery and a Quaker cemetery, both in Union Co. The entry for the Presbyterian cemetery has a map, clearly indicating that it is on Tinker Creek Road (route 44-36) northeast of Berry Farm Road (route 44-24) at the foot of Phoebe Place. In Street View, you can see a brick church with a steeple next to the cemetery. If you go to Google Maps and start from there, go west on Tinker Creek Road to Berry Farm Road (about 1/4 mile), Then go left and proceed about two miles toward the southeast on Berry Farm Road to the intersection with route 44-35 (Santuc Drive). About 200 feet beyond that intersection is a dirt road (a lane really) that goes into the woods. According to Google Maps, another Cane Creek Cemetery is at the end of that road. It is in a clearing in the woods. I'm guessing that is the Quaker Cemetery as marked on your father's map. It is pretty much straight south of what appears to be Santuc, at the intersection of Tinker Creek Road and highway 215. Google Maps also shows a Cane Creek Cemetery down another dirt road near the heart of Santuc. From the aerial view, it looks like there is a church near the end of the road. The dirt road is labeled Cane Creek Church Road, which suggests to me that it is less likely to be a Quaker Cemetery since Quakers more typically use the term Meeting House rather than Church. But who knows? With any luck, someone on the list lives near there or has been there and can verify which is which.
