Some records refer to this cemetery as the Back Creek Cemetery or Cloyd's Family Cemetery. It is located near the old Joseph Cloyd brick house built around 1790 at Back Creek. David Cloyd lived in this same house following his father's death.
The first known grave was that of the first infant son of Gordon and Elizabeth Cloyd (1797). The cemetery probably had a rail fence to protect it. Three more children of David and Elizabeth were added before the rock wall was built.
In 1830, David Cloyd (s/o Joseph and Gordons's brother) paid Lawrence Krone $125 for the building of a graveyard stone wall and for carving a marker. Mr. Krone was a renown maker of headstones. The marker was for Gordon's wife, Elizabeth McGavock Cloyd d. 1830. Gordon was placed beside his wife in the spring of 1833.
The old Cloyd progenitor, Joseph Cloyd, was buried there in the fall of 1833. We do not know the death date of his wife, Mary.
