| | Hughes Cemetery, Harrison County, Missouri |
 | | Certainly, the spot was used as a de facto cemetery before that, though; the first burial noted to date was in 1859, before Hiram had migrated to the area and certainly before he first bought land in this area in 1886. |
 | | The cemetery is located in Section 12, Township 66, Range 26 of Harrison County, one-half mile west of the Mercer-Harrison county line, about 8 miles north of Cainsville, Missouri. |
 | | Although the cemetery is located within Harrison County, it can no longer be reached directly from there, as the old road has not been used in far too many years. |
