Take Hwy 84 east out of Hartington, turn left onto 568 Ave continue for 2 miles. Turn left (west) onto 884 Rd, then go right (north) onto 567 Ave. The cemetery is located at the top of the hill at a T in the road.

Paragon used to be a community. There was a church, cemetery, mill and a school, all that is left now is the cemetery.

This is a complete transcription of all existing headstones I read in 2000.
