Perhaps calling this grave site a cemetery is misleading. It would have to qualify as the smallest cemetery in Titus County because only one person is buried here and only one monument stands to memorialize the event. Tradition holds that Mr. John J. Murrie had died while visiting relatives on the south side of the Sulphur River. When the family attempted to get the body back home to the north side of the river, the river was flooded making passage impossible. The family requested and was granted permission to bury the body on the land owned by the Fishback family. The monument has been broken and someone has recently installed a metal plate to hold the pieces together.

To reach the Murrie Cemetery from the Titus County Court House take Jefferson Street (US 271) north 16.3 miles to the intersection of FM 71. Turn right (east) on FM 71 and proceed 3.2 miles to County Road (CR) 1915 that intersects FM 71 on the left. Turn left onto CR 1915. The cemetery lies about 0.2 mile down CR 1915 and 0.2 mile back in the wood north of the road. The grave site is not maintained. Coordinates: 33^o21.771'N 095^o02.849'W
