From the Interstate 29 and Highway 370 interchange (Exit 42) go 1 mile east on Highway 370 and turn and go down County Road L31 about 3 miles. The cemetery is on the east side up on the hill with a green fence around it.

This cemetery is a small well kept up cemetery. It contains the graves of Samuel Allis who a minister/ missionary to the Pawnee Indians. The other famous grave is that of Vernon Palmer Wall who was lost at sea in a subarine attack in the Pacific Ocean in 1944.

I did a complete walk through again on Apr 03, 2002.
