Cemeteries
The Old Yuma Cemetery was once located northeast of Sterling, Idaho. Because of the encroaching reservoir formed by the American Falls dam, all the graves had to be relocated by the early 1940s; some to places unknown, some to Springfield, and some to Aberdeen.

The Sterling-Springfield Cemetery is located on Highway 39, just outside of Springfield, Idaho. The gravestones have been photographed and appear on www.findagrave.com.

The Aberdeen Cemetery is located south of Sterling in Aberdeen, Idaho. The gravestones have been photographed and appear on www.findagrave.com.
