The cemetery appears to have been kept up, as there were several US Flags on graves, which were placed there recently as well as modern engraved plates on all headstones. Any information enclosed in brackets has been added by me for clarification. This may not be a complete list of graves located in the Mill Creek Cemetery, as there are a few headstones, which were not legible. (1) [Rev.] WILLIAM SMITH Private Miss.
