Highland Cemetery is located in Fall Creek Township, Hamilton County, south of 116th Street, on the east and west sides of Hoosier Road. Originally the portion east of the Hoosier Road was known as the Gustin Cemetery and the portion west was known as the Beaver Cemetery. Some years later an addition was made to the Gustin Cemetery, which was known as the Flannigan/Flanagan Cemetery. In 1905 additional acreage was added to the Beaver Cemetery, and then all were combined and incorporated as Highland Cemetery.

Indiana Cemetery Locations, Volume 2, published by the Indiana Genealogical Society (01 April 2006), gives the primary cemetery name as Highland Cemetery with alternate names of Beaver Cemetery, Flannigan Cemetery, and Gustin Cemetery.

The cemetery is listed in the Cemetery and Burial Grounds Registry of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and in the State Historical Architectural and Archaeological Research Database (SHAARD) with Cemetery Record Number CR-29-38 (Highland / Beaver / Gustin).
