My great-great-grandmother, Mattie Calvert Lester, is buried at Spring Creek Cemetery which is on the grounds of what is now an Indian church north of Calvin. I don't recall the exact name of the church, but the name you give sounds right. The cemetery and church were off of a winding dirt road north of Calvin, and the cemetery was to the east of the church. If we're talking about the same place, it's also known as Spring Creek Cemetery. A transcription of the headstone information is at the Oklahoma Historical Society Library, and probably the Holdenville Library as well.
