The Troy Cemetery is a community cemetery located in Lincoln County. There are approximately 600 gravesites.
Most of the early interments started around the early 1900s. Though there are four interments dating from 1897 to 1899. The cemetery was established around this time.
There are several gravesites with names only, without birth or death information and these could be some of the earlier interments. 20% of the interments took place prior to 1930: There were 13 interments from 1902 to 1909, 55 from 1940 to 1919 and 86 in the 1920s. The total interments from 1897 to 1930 are 163.
