"Canada became a country on July 1, 1867, and one hundred years later on July 19, 1967 Fox Creek was officially incorporated as an Alberta community. Fox Creek had its beginnings as a small service station on a quiet county road. The town now has about seven thousand vehicles going through the area daily. Fox Creek is a full-service community of 2,278 friendly residents. The Town acts as a strong service centre to the burgeoning oil and gas industry. Located just two and one-half hours drive northwest of Edmonton on Highway 43." See the town's website: (visit link)

With its relatively young age you will find as you stroll through this cemetery that the markers are not the old, and that mny are from younger people that may have been working or worked in the oil and gas fields of the area. There are about 100 markers in the cemetery.

The cemetery sits between the light industrial / commercial area of town and the residential portion of the town.
