This cemetery is located just over the Carroll County Arkansas line in Boone County on Long Creek. It is off Tower Road on what was at one time the Mike Fowler farm. It is located at the crest of a hay field just above Long Creek between Denver and Omaha. To get there I took Carroll County Road 824 off Highway 311. I do not know if the name is actually Blevins Cemetery, but the only marked graves I found were Blevins graves.
There are probably 30 to 50 graves in the cemetery, most marked only with unmarked native stones. Some of the graves seem to no longer be marked at all.

Cemetery History
By Vineta Terherst Wingate [vwingate@alltel.net]
I don't know all that much about the other Blevins Cemetery in the grove of trees, but have been there several times. My mother calls this the John Houston Blevins Cemetery. John Adam Blevins owned this land and I think sold it to his son John Houston Blevins. As I was growing up, Birtie Blevins owned this land and lived in the stone house beside the road there. I believe Birtie, or his kids, sold this land to Mike Snyder and Mike stills owns it today. I do not have any direct ancestors buried here and haven't spent as much time researching this one as the other one. I do have some names of people buried there that do not have tombstones and will try to get that together for you later.
