Benton Co. installs monument for unmarked graves at Horse Heaven Hills cemetery

A pioneer cemetery in the windswept hills above Benton City has a new monument honoring the individuals and families buried there. Benton County reports it installed the monument at the Horse Heaven Cemetery this week. The 2-acre cemetery is sometimes called “the baby graves” because of how many of children of local farming families were buried there when it was active. It was established in 1893 by the family of William Dennis . According to Tri-City Herald archives, Dennis, 61, died in a harvest accident and was buried in his garden. The cemetery served local farm families for the next few generations, then went out of use 50 or so years later. The last burial was in the 1940s. Over time, the desolate site attracted ghost hunters and curiosity seekers drawn by questionable reports of spooky happenings, Herald archives show. Benton County took over management in 2012, overseeing beautification efforts and compiling information from county records, family histories and other sources. The new monument was installed after the cemetery was surveyed with ground penetrating radar to identify unmarked graves. The cemetery is about seven miles south of Benton City, one mile west of Travis Road at 10403 Cemetery Road, Prosser.
