To reach the cemetery from Florence, Alabama go north on Alabama Hwy. 17, turn left on County Road 11 and travel about 1.7 miles and turn right on County Rd. 139. This is a dirt road. The cemetery is approximately .1 of a mile on the right in an open field about 300 feet off the road with access through a farm gate.

 

The Nolen cemetery is located between Alabama State Hwy. 17 and Lauderdale County Rd. 7 just off County Rd. 11 on County Rd. 139, a dirt road. This cemetery is reported to have been known as the Emory Cemetery in years past. Later, it became known as the Nolen Cemetery, as the Nolen family owned the farm. It is not known if there are Emory’s or Nolen’s buried here. There are many, many graves in this cemetery with no markers. Several have stone markers with no inscriptions. This cemetery also was included in the Wayne County, Tennessee cemetery project and given a number due to its close proximity to Tennessee and families of Tennessee that are connected with it. The annual decoration day at Nolen Cemetery is the 3rd Sunday in June (fathers day).
