Cane Hill Cemetery is a cemetery in Canehill, Arkansas. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The Cane Hill area was home to a Civil War skirmish a few days prior to the Battle of Prairie Grove. James G. Blunt and his Union troops captured approximately 2,000 Confederate soldiers in November 1862. The cemetery contains many Civil War-era (and earlier) markers.
