Just over the rise, past a row of trees, the church and cemetery sit up on the hill to the left. Despite being somewhat difficult to reach, due to road access being controlled by DOE, it appears that the cemetery is still regularly visited and fairly well maintained. There are a wide variety of headstones, and dates of death range from mid-1800's to current date. Dates of birth extend to the 1700's. Continuing from the church driveway, the road descends slightly on the way to the Wheat Community Monument, which is about a half mile away. Around the corner, past the kudzu and high voltage transmission lines, the monument comes into view at the end of the road. The monument stands in a grassy clearing next to woods on one side and power lines on the other side. There is a nice rock wall along the front of the clearing. The wall is about three feet high, and the monument stands about seven feet tall. From behind the monument - The site overlooks a highway interchange at the intersection of Highway 58 and Highway 95. A chain link fence stands between the monument site and the road.
