The cemetery is located from Kensington, Kansas north on C Rd about 16 miles to A Rd. Go West 2 miles to 10 Rd. Sits on southeast side of the intersection. Note A Rd and 10 Rd are dirt roads so recommended when it has rained. The north side of this cemetery is situated on the south side of the Nebraska and Kansas state line. It is sometimes called Northwest Fairview Cemetery, although the reason is not known. The cemetery is pretty well cared for and kept trimmed up. Robert Gillis and I walked this cemetery in May of 2006.
