Independence County, AR-Hickory Valley Cemetery Submitted by: Cindy Treadway --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HICKORY VALLEY CEMETERY Hickory Valley Cemetery is the cemetery of Hickory Valley Methodist Church. It can be found on Hwy 167 N about two miles from Cave City. The church building, with a sign in front identifying it sits on the left side of the road; the cemetery is across the street. Its entrance is a gap in the fence, closed off by a heavy wire with white rags tied to it. The wire is easily unhooked, allowing access to the cemetery. This is a small cemetery, but there are several graves marked only with field stones or stones so weathered they can no longer be read.
