History

Created in 1840, the same year Caldwell was laid out, when lots 3 and 12 were made a "Grave Yard and Church lot" forever, this cemetery includes the burial of town founder Lewis L. Chiles, who died in 1864, and the oldest legible stone is for Margarette A. King and her infant daughter, who died in 1843; it is now maintained by the city.
