Cameron Pioneer Cemetery Nameplate
Handmade marker outside the gate.
Just east of town across the Little River is the Pioneer Cemetery - where many of the earlier residents are interred. Cameron's city cemetery is just SE of downtown, a stone's throw from the courthouse and jail.

Graves are scattered in clusters across two acres of grass on high ground above forested river bottom land.
