There is no entrance sign for this cemetery.

West Shady Grove Cemetery is located on FM 747, four miles east of Highway 84, approximately three miles west of Pierce Chapel.

 

South and West of Jacksonville on County road 1904 which turns to the West off State Road 747 South of the Pierce's Chapel community. It is in a very scenic but lonely spot on a hill covered with old growth oak trees. It has a small permanent pavilion and a paved drive-thru. It is well maintained. There are some temporary markers that have become unreadable and several sandstone blocks which mark graves but give no clue to the individual buried there. This Cemetery marker survey was completed in August 1996 by Gaylon White and published in 1997 by the Cherokee County Genealogical Society.
