This is New Hope Cemetery at Lost Corner, also known as Lost Corner Cemetery. There is another cemetery in Pope County called North New Hope Cemetery west of Dover about 3 miles. Then there is a South New Hope community in southern Pope County with an old cemetery called Mt. Zion that is sometimes called South New Hope Cemetery.
From the Supermarket in Hector, go north on Highway 27 for 1.6 miles to the juction of White Oak Mountain Road. Turn right on this road and go northeast for 14.2 miles. Cemetery is on the lieft. There are signs on the highway to show the way and also on top of White Oak Mountain.
Also can be reached off Highway 16 on Dabney Road in Van Buren County. It is exactly 2 miles east from the Zion Hill Church and Cemetery on Highway 16 in Pope County. You would turn right on Dabney Road. Not sure how many miles from the Highway, but there are no turns to make. Cemetery would be on the right.
The reason this community is called Lost Corner, you will think you are lost before you ever get there!! There is no easy way to get there from any of the counties around it.
