Directions: This old cemetery is on the corner of Pilgrim Church Rd. and City Lake Rd. just off of Ridge Road, Lexington, Davidson Co., N.C. It is in a mown field across the street from the Pilgrim Reformed UCC. There are very few headstones remaining and most cannot be easily read. From downtown Lexington, take Hwy 8 North (old hwy 52 towards Welcome). At intersection of City Lake Rd, turn right and follow at least a mile to Pilgrim Church Rd which intersects from the right. Turn right and park at church across the road. The cemetery is at the intersection across from the church.
