Sparks Cemetery — Sparks

Sparks Cemetery lies eighteen and a half miles east of Valentine on Highway 12, or a mile east of Sparks itself, in Section 10 of Township 34, Range 25. It is an old burial ground, among the earlier ones along the Niobrara.

Around 229 memorials have been recorded, which is a record of what has been photographed and indexed rather than a count of everyone buried there.

For burial records or plot enquiries, contact the Cherry County Clerk in Valentine. Ownership can also be confirmed through the Nebraska Statewide Cemetery Registry at the State Historical Society.
