This cemetery is located in Garfield County. From State Highway 164 East and Noble Road, aka County Road 10, west of Lucien, or east of Hayward, go south on Noble Road for approximately 4.75 miles; cemetery opens on the west side of the road.
Locally the cemetery is referred to as Lubbers Cemetery in reference to the land donors, John and Anna Lubbers. They are buried here with their infant son, Reiners, who at the age of 6 weeks became the first resident here, in what was most likely the Lubbers family homestead. Civil War Veteran, John McNeal, is buried here along with his wife and an infant Grandson. There are a total of 15 burials, the earliest in 1894 and the most recent in 1973.
