SAWYER
CEMETERY
CHARITY CHAPEL
WASHINGTON COUNTY, ALABAMA
From Citronelle, take Odom Rd (or John Johnson Rd) (it is known by two
names), once you reach the Mobile/ Washington county line, it is
approximately 1 mile (or a little less). It will be a red
gravel road that kind of forks off to the left. The road is named
Sawyer Cemetery Rd but its kind of hard to notice the sign, it is just
before Odom Rd dips down and then rises back up again.
