One the Haskell-Gray County line, two miles north of Kansas Highway 144, the ruins of this cemetery are located near the site of the old town of Lockport. Long abandoned, there are three marked graves to be found. One reads "T. D. G., 1850-1892." A second stone is that of Elizabeth G. Van Wye, 1844-1888. The large marker is the Will family stone, marked on the north side with "Daughter, died April 17, 1887, aged 9 days." On the west face of the stone is the name of her father, Samuel, who died in November that same year at the age of 28.
