The Weeks Cemetery is located in Bentinck Twp, six miles south of Westhope, Bottineau county ND then five miles west, and one mile north on the prairie trail.

The Weeks family donated the land for this cemetery. At one time First Presbyterian Church was located on this site, on the cemetery's south fence. Today, the church is now located inside the town of Westhope, and still owns the land.

The cemetery is kept in very good condition after the Presbyterian Church in Westhope got some volunteers together and cleaned it up and put up a new fence. The Huber family has kept it up for the last several years up to this date.
