Hickory Point Cemetery is located in the southwest corner of Section 13 in Tompkins Twp. This burial ground was associated with and adjacent to the Hickory Point Church. The Reformed Presbyterian Church was organized in 1848 in Monmouth, Il. In 1855 the congregation built the Country Church and became known as Hickory Point Church. Land for the cemetery was purchased in 1858 with money deeded from John Paul to the trustees of the church. Tombstone inscriptions indicate that the land was used for burials before it was purchased. In 1866 the congregation dissolved the members going into other churches in neighboring communities. No provisions were left for the upkeep of the cemetery and since that time it has been intermittently neglected and maintained by various concerned individuals.
