The Parks Helton Cemetery is named in honor of Parks A. Helton, the son of Joseph Helton and Jane Gaines. He donated the land now comprising Parks Helton Cemetery, located on what was once called Kate's Branch.

The cemetery is off KY 6 in a rural area between Wilton and Dishman Springs. The gravel road leading to the cemetery is presently called Hound Branch Road. A cemetery sign erected along KY 6 serves as a marker to find this turnoff.

There are two cemeteries located along Hound Branch Road. The first is Miller Cemetery, and is accessed by taking the right fork. To get to Parks Helton Cemetery, stay on Hound Branch Road (taking the left fork) and drive approximately one mile. The cemetery is enclosed by a chain linked fence.
