On a little hill in Shelley, Bingham County, Idaho one-fourth mile south and one-fourth mile east on Base Line Road (1200 North) lies the Hillcrest Cemetery. The earliest record that can be found shows the first person buried here took place in 1892. In 1939 a contest was held to give the Cemetery a name. Hillcrest was chosen, and the winner won $5 prize money. It is also known as Shelley Cemetery.
