Marker Text: Started in pioneer era on land of James and Isabella Caufield Dunn, who with 8 other families came from Ireland to America in 1821, living first in Charleston, S. C., then in Boligee, Ala. In Dec. 1833 they began trek to colony of Sterling C. Robertson by ox-wagons and carryalls. With the Dunns were families of Henry Caufield, Letitia Ellis and her daughter Elizabeth Watson, Henry and William Fullerton, Hugh and William Henry, the widow McMillan, and the Youngs. Burial of infant of James and Isabella Dunn (1836) opened this cemetery, used ever since by heirs of the pioneers. (1972)

Location: This cemetery is a couple of miles outside of Wheelock. Take Ranch Road 391 out of Wheelock heading towards Hearne. Just after the Wheelock Cemetery, which will be on the right, the paved road veers to the right. Make a sharp left here onto County Road 304 and follow this road which will take a sharp right and will dead-end into County Road 302. Turn right on County Road 302. A short distance down, turn left on what used to be County Road 301 (which dead-ends into 302 but is no longer marked as a county road). The cemetery is on private land that used to be on the Pryor Ranch. There's no sign for the cemetery but the property is currently called "Treasure Hunt Ranch" which is clearly marked by a sign on County Road 302. Go across the cattle guard at the entrance to Treasure Hunt Ranch and follow the road. You'll cross a second cattle guard. The fenced cemetery is in a grove of trees on a rise to the right.
