This cemetery is all that remains of a small community on Hog Creek, near Mosheim, in Bosque County. There was a store, the church, a school and the cemetery. It is also noted that near by in the creekbed of Hog Creek are wagon tracks from the Old Fort Gates Road to Fort Graham. All that remains of the church are some cedar pilings. The area was abandoned and in about 2002, descendants, Hugh Adams and Prentice Barnett, began cleaning the area and restoring the markers. The cemetery is on private property and the owner continues to maintain both sites – Knowles and Old Rock Church. Permission may be granted for access. A guide is needed.
