Directions: Take 86 highway to Fairview, MO, going toward Neosho from South (or Cassville), to through Fairview. Shortly after leaving Fairview there is a green farm road marker on the right with name WALEYE, turn right. Go on Waleye until there is a green farm road marker, NORWAY, turn right. Keep on Norway until you see Mt. Olive Church on the left with cemetery in back. Shortly before seeing the church there is a number on the Norway marker that reads 31.

This cemetery is listed on the Barry County web site because it is so close to the county line. Many folks think it is in Barry County but it is in Newton County. NW of Pioneer (Barry County) and just west of the Newton Barry Line. All the stones in this cemetery was photographed in September of 2010 by Ted Roller and Donna Cooper.
