Historical Marker

 

 

This cemetery has served the community of Thrifty since 1862. The first grave recorded has the date 1862, (stone slab). The name is not legible. The oldest birth date within the county is that of Charles Mullins, born April 5, 1790 in Virginia. It is known that at least 3 people buried here were killed by Indians. Mr. W C Love, November 13, 1864, Mrs. Bill Williams and her son, December 1873, the son lived about three weeks in the Mullins household, but died from his wounds. Both are buried in the same grave, in the northeast corner. The Mud Creek Cemetery Association placed a marker at this grave site in 1987. When the first person was buried here this property belonged to Mr. Malcom Hunter. He owned a stage stop, which also served as a headquarters for the "Frontier Defense". Later this property belonged to Mr. Riley Cross and his wife Lucy (Mullins) Cross. The deed is recorded in the Brown County Courthouse, Volume 361, page 426. This same track of land became the refinery for the "Fry Oil Field". Here the refinery, Post Office and many homes were erected in 1927. Today nothing remains of the Fry Community.
