To reach cemetery go 1 miles east of the post office on
Old Mill Creek Road and look for the large white water tower on the south side of road. The cemetery
is beside the water tower.
This cemetery was begun in 1901 when the town of Mill Creek moved to it's present
location.
After the Frisco RR came through, the town moved 4 miles east, leaving the Old Mill Creek Cemetery behind. The old
cemetery is located on the Penner Ranch west of Mill Creek.
There is one
stone
in the new cemetery that is dated 1874 and this would indicate that there
was probably a family cemetery in the area well before 1901. All other
stones are dated after 1900.
There are probably 100 graves that are unknown and unmarked. This registry
is complete to Nov 16, 2002.
