Neely Flat Cemetery lies out in the Sandhills in the middle of the county, better than twenty miles from the nearest village. The coordinates are the practical guide; there is nothing else to navigate by. It is listed under Hay Springs, the nearest village, about twenty miles to the north.
Only nine memorials have been indexed, which is a record of what has been photographed rather than a count of everyone buried there.
For burial records or plot enquiries, contact the Sheridan County Clerk in Rushville. Ownership can also be confirmed through the Nebraska Statewide Cemetery Registry at the State Historical Society.
