Location: Off KC# 473 near Little Devil's River not far from the site of historic old Noxville.A deed dated 15 October, 1890, from Noah and Resis Nox to E. S. Alley, County Judge, gave one acre of land for cemetery purposes out of Survey #609, S.A.&M.G. Railroad Company.
First known grave here is that of Elizabeth West, who died 24 February, 1881.
Creed Taylor, a valiant soldier of early Texas fame, rests here from the cares of the rest of the world. At least seven Civil War veterans and those who fought in later wars are among those who sleep here amid the murmuring oaks and the cedars.
This site has a pastoral setting and is well tended
by a committe of community persons.

Notes from Taylor, Creed : Veteran for Texas Independence, War with Mexico, and Civil War.
*** We Quote from O. C. Fisher's IT OCCURRED IN KIMBLE: "When the remains of Creed Taylor were borne to the Noxville cemetery in a wagon, oldtimers scratched there heads and mused, 'It's a wonder he don't break right out of there! That's more than he ever did alive--ride in a wagon!' Never one time during his lifetime was he seen in a wheeled vehicle."
