The cemetery is NOT located at Carmel Presbyterian Church, Cedar Rock Church or Lighthouse Baptist Church. The directions printed in various Anderson County cemetery survey books are no longer accurate. Pickens Chapel, no currently abandoned, used to be the location of Richmond, Six & Twenty and Carmel Church - all names at different points in time for Carmel Presbyterian Church. Later, it served other churches, such as Lighthouse Baptist Church. The cemetery is located just across the Anderson County Line: drive out of Easley on SC8 on the road to Pelzer; once you enter Anderson County, turn right on Three and Twenty Mile Road (S-485); drive until you see a historical market to the cemetery on the left. Without a sensitive odometer, we estimate the distance at about 3 to 4 miles from the historical marker at Pickensville (inside Easley on SC 8). Once you turn on Three and Twenty Mile Road, it is about 2 to 3 miles to the cemetery marker. Coming from Pelzer, take SC 8 to junction of SC 81 and SC 88. Take SC 88 west. From SC 88, the road to the cemetery is marked as SSR 485; it is NOT so marked coming from Easley! Slabtown no longer exists on any maps, online or printed. The only map we found of use is the DeLorme map of South Carolina, page 23, where the unpaved road is shown in grey. The road to the abandoned chapel is closed off; you have to park just off the highway. The cemetery is located about 100 yards back from the rear of the chapel. Follow an abandoned road/path to the cemetery. The cemetery is badly overgrown. Wear closed-in shoes because the ground is covered with various species of ants (all of whom bite) and poison ivy. I have pictures of the cemetery marker and overgrown cemetery. I've already posted pictures of all the tombstones of Revolutionary War soldiers on their respective surname boards. My thanks go out to the DAR chapter who replaced the original markers with the stones, probably sometime in the 1960s. Otherwise these locations would be totally lost.
