This land was part of the Richard Martin family homestead, from the Land Run of April 1889. Soon after arriving here, Mary Martin gave birth to an unnamed baby boy and the baby was buried on the highest point of their land. There are many "unknown baby" graves here. Both Richard and Mary are buried in the cemetery along with several of their descendants.
There is a private road leading from Sooner Road to the cemetery, but the gate is usually locked. To access the cemetery, park at the dead end at N 35° 35.445 W 097° 25.874 and walk across the field and through the treeline. Some bushwhacking will be required.
