To find Blanton Cemetery travel South from Savoy on CR1752 or East from Whitewright on FM898 to where these two roads intersect. Just East of this intersection, you will see a sign for Blanton Cemetery directing you to turn South on CR4300. From CR4300, take the first right onto an unnamed and rarely traveled road. The only destination on this road is the Blanton Cemetery. Follow the road to the end where you will find the cemetery entrance.

The clearing shown here to the left of the marker is a pretty good view of the cemetery. My uneducted estimate is that the area covered by the cemetery is about an acre.
