History: In 1896 the Smith and Chapman
families donated 4 acres here for a cemetery and church lot. A
sanctuary for all faiths was built on the site the same year to
serve the scattered ranches along the divide between the watersheds
of the Colorado and North Concho Rivers. First to be buried here
was Mrs. H.A. (Callie) Chapman (1870-97). The cemetery contains
about 100 graves, including those of the earliest settlers of
this area of Coke county and veterans of World Wars I and II and
Korea. This cemetery is still used by descendants of many pioneers.
