From Hatton, go 5 miles north on Highway 18 then turn west and go 1/4 mile until you reach a farmstead on the north side of the road. Turn into the drive way and the cemetery is in a grove of trees behind the house.

This is a small cemetery with the burials of the Swenson Family who homesteaded the land back about 120 years ago. Records below were compiled by Anne Braun from tombstone inscriptions, and compared with a transcription published by the Red River Genealogical Society in 1974.
