The setting of the Mendon, Utah cemetery is one of the most beautiful in all of the greater Cache Valley, if not the whole state. With the lovely Mendon Mountains as a backdrop and a view of the Cache Valley laid out to the east, it sits high in the midst of rich farmland with a small spring stream flowing along the north side.
I feel no other cemetery can compare to the beauty or for such a peaceful setting. In the early spring with the trees in bloom and the grass so green, the snow capped mountains set the view apart in a way that only the beautiful Mendon Cemetery can.
The entrance to the Mendon, Utah Cemetery begins at approximately 25 North 200 West, and is marked with a small city sign. Coming into Mendon on State Highway 23, from either the north or south, there are nice big brown State Highway information signs directing you west to the cemetery. From Highway 23 (the same as 100 West) travel one block west on Center Street, and turn right. Just ahead is a small sign on your left, directing you up the hill on the paved road. Mendon's Pioneer Park sits just below the cemetery and has a wonderful three person bronze sculpture as a center piece. William (Bill) Hill of our fair city created this amazing piece of art, depicting the pioneers first arriving in Mendon during the early spring of 1859. This is a wonderfully quite place to eat a picnic lunch and or to view those most beautiful Mendon Mountains. If you liked Bill's work in Pioneer Park, there is a five person bronze sculpture on the Tabernacle grounds, in Logan, Utah you might enjoy as well. Bill Hill used local Mendon people for the models of these.
So, please enjoy your time with the information shared here, I wish you the best of luck with your family history or genealogy project. I hope that this Mendon Cemetery Interment and Obituary Index can be of help to you and your family in someway…
