Hillsboro Cemetery is located southeast of El Dorado, Arkansas. Turn off Hwy. 82 East (Strong Hwy.) onto Hillsboro. Cemetery is about 2 miles down this road on your left. It is all that is left of the once thriving community of Hillsboro. May 6, 2005 Janice Holzer

As you turn onto Hillsboro Road there is a historical marker giving you a history sketch of the community.
