A sign on a tree identifies it as Hearon Cemetery and the sign states that it is maintained by Lamartine Deer Camp.

It is seven chains west and five chains north of the southeast corner of the NE1/4 SW1/4 of Section 16 on property owned by Potlatch Corporation. The timber around the cemetery was clear cut about 2001, but a small grove of trees was left around the graves.
