This cemetery is located a half-mile south of Bradford and west of Highway 67 in Section 7, Township 9 North, Range 4 West. It was first listed in May 1968 by the Bradford Homemaker’s Extension Club, then published by the White County Historical Society in its 1969 edition of White County Heritage.
The cemetery was visited January 3, 2001, by Leroy Blair of the White County Historical Society who found it "badly overgrown and damaged by vandals." The cemetery had not been used in the 32 years since the first listing, but Blair did find a broken stone of a previously unlisted Riley infant boy who died August 21, 1904. He also found five graved marked by rocks, some 20 depressions that were probably unmarked graves and one grave marked with a funeral home marker so old it was no longer legible. He was unable to find the graves of Madoliene Monroe or Maggie Stout, which were on the 1968 list. In August 2003, Laveda Steed of the historical society added the names of six people who are buried here in unmarked graves.
Blair provided the following directions for reaching Robb Cemetery: "To get to this cemetery from Bradford, take Highway 367 south to Fox Meadow Road about one-quarter mile from the Highway 87-367 intersection in Bradford. Turn right on Fox Meadow and go about 100 yards to the first road that turns left. Turn onto it and go about 50 yards to a metal gate. After you go through the gate you will see a pasture field that is on the right side of the road. Go about 100 yards down this road. The cemetery is in the woods at the end of the pasture field. There are a lot of stones damaged by vandals."
