Location | The cemetery is located to the west of the Spicewood Springs Apartment (SSA) complex at 8617 Spicewood Springs Rd in Austin. Park at the gated apartment complex at 8600 Spicewood Springs Rd. There is a gravel path that goes south out of the parking area of the gated complex, then east in front of that property and then north up the west fence of the SSA complex. The path leads to the Jolly cemetery which is located across from building seven of the SSA complex. |
Condition | This cemetery is well maintained but has been abused in the past. There are no undamaged stones in the cemetery and many graves are only marked by fieldstones. Robert Barron has a nice site at http://www.austinexplorer.com/Cemeteries/TravisCounty/JollyCemetery/ with photos of this cemetery. |
