The Farmer's Corner Burials, at one time was a very small pioneer cemetery. It would have been a familiar sight in the late 1870's and early 1880's, as freight wagons and stage coaches from Kelton, Utah would stop near the cemetery, before making their way West to Oregon. There were originally about 35 headstone in this cemetery, but wind and weather have taken their toll and only six grave markers remain. William L. Belfield was instrumental in getting the Cassia County Commissioner to preserve the remaining graves in October of 1957.

The Farmer's Corner Burials are mostly for one family. There is only one grave with unknown dates. The existing headstones can still be read.

The Farmer's Corner Burials are located about 2 miles South of Burley and 1.3 miles West of the Farmer's Corner Store, on the West side of the canal bank to the North or Left hand side of the road. There is a brick home at 122 West 200 South that shares the same property. There is also a sign next to the canal bank named "Judd Corner". The graves are enclosed behind the chain link fence.
