Seaton Cemetery is located in Pulaski County, MO., north of Dixon on Highway 133, to Crest Road, on Carney Road.

Seaton Cemetery is a large church cemetery. Local legend claims that Martha Helms Seaton was the first person buried here, in 1855, and that she was carried to her burial in a two wheel cart. There are no dates on her tombstone that was donated by her friends. However, there is a dated stone for Izabell Ward that lists her date of death as June 1854. James Monroe Duncan, who died circa 1900, rested in Hancock Cemetery for 32 years, before being reburied in Seaton Cemetery next to his wife, Mary Francis Duncan, shortly after her death September 1932.
