This cemetery is located on Patterson Creek near Williamsport and is said to be the oldest in Grant County according to WPA records. It is enclosed by a high stone wall fence and several graves in the northeast corner are unmarked. It is evident that Cal. Vincent Williams who was masacared by Indians under Chief Kilbuck is interred in this cemetery.
