Directions to Cemetery
The address for the cemetery is officially SW 20th Street, Benton, Butler, Kansas which is pretty vague. Benton is east of Andover Road off of 254 highway. Coming from 254 you turn into Benton and then at the big church turn left onto 20th street. The cemetery is just over a mile east of the town on 20th street.
