Koch Cemetery
Private family cemetery in the old Logtown area, located where the Koch house once stood before Nasa relocated this entire area in 1964.
Directions:
Head west on Highway 90, and continue on the 607. Turn left on the 604. After about 1.7 miles, make a right hand turn, more of a Y actually. It is a paved road but has no name. Follow this road for another 0.5 miles until you see a fence to your right. Past the fence, it's about a quarter of a mile walk from the road. Veer left when you get to the cluster of large oak trees.
Cemetery layout:
Rows start numbering at the gate in the front. Row 5 is located about 75 feet behind and downhill from the other graves.
