Hill Cemetery is a historic cemetery on Cousins Island in Yarmouth, Maine. Located in today's Katherine Tinker Preserve, [1] it is now closed to burials. [2]

The cemetery is so named because it contains only members of the Hill family, with dates of death ranging from 1831 to 1899. [3] It includes burials of Revolutionary War veterans. [4]
