About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

"Hensley Cemetery" is named after Civil War Veteran William Issam Hensley (b. November 22, 1835 - d. November 7, 1928) the son of William Bryson Hensley and Elizabeth "Betsie" Cooper.

The cemetery is fenced in, active and well taken care of. To access the cemetery, it's recommended to park the car at the designated lot and walk up the hill. There are several unmarked graves.

Directions: Proceed on 19W east towards Burnsville. At the stop sign this is Bee Log Junction. Make a right and cross the Cane River; Guys General Store/Gas Station is on the left. Continue on Little Creek Road for 3/10 of a mile and proceed straight on Phillips Road for 2/10 of a mile (Little Creek Road bends to the left). Turn left on Hensley Farm Road which is a private road and proceed 4/10 of a mile. Turn right before reaching the old Marcus Hensley home. Proceed about 800 feet up the grassy lane (4 wheel drive recommended). There is a small parking area; you will see the cemetery in the distance which is about 700 feet.
