West Creek Cemetery is a little over a half-mile west from the historical location of West Creek Post Office. Located in the SE¼ of NW¼ of Sec. 16, Township 4 South, Range 3 West, West Creek Cemetery is near the original location of Stoney Point School (School District No. 37), before it was moved late in the Nineteenth Century or early in the Twentieth Century.

The cemetery was incorporated for a period of 99 years on September 10, 1892, as the "West Creek Cemetery Association." The charter names seven directors/trustees: E. A. Bryant, of Talmo; W. P. Rarick, of Concordia; W. N. Joslyn, of Talmo; James Joslyn, of Talmo; W. T. Lash, of Talmo; J. M. Stallings, of Concordia; and Thomas Neal, of Talmo. Although the association is still the owner of the cemetery, the association was forfeited August 13, 1973, for failure to file an annual report with the Kansas secretary of state.
