The cemetery is now located on Oregon State Forestry property and is not being maintained.
Its location is a short distance south of Necanicum Junction (intersection of Hwys 26 and 53)on Highway 53, then turn east on
Hamlet Road and proceed about 3.6+ miles to Hill Road. The cemetery is on Hill Road, but it is now difficult
to locate as it is in the forest.
The Hamlet Cemetery Association was formed 24 Dec 1915 by H. J. Autio, Henry Hill, and Andrew Mattson.
The earliest known burial was a child in 1911. The most recent burials were in the 1940s.
The community of Hamlet was established in 1891 by three brothers who were Finnish fishermen from Astoria, Oregon: Albert, Henry and
Andrew Hill. Their Finnish surname was Makela, which translates in English to "Hill."
The Hamlet post office was established in 1905 with Albert Hill as the first postmaster. The name was chosen because it was such
a small community.
