GLASS - FELPS CEMETERY

The Glass-Felps cemetery, as the name implies, contains the graves of persons associated with the Glass and Felps families. It is located south of Jacksonville Texas on the west side of FM 2138. It is difficult to see from the road as it is on a slight embankment up from the road shoulder, and behind some brushy growth. Large oak trees and Crepe Myrtles on top of the embankment will assist in locating it. It is almost exactly 4 miles south of the intersection of South Bolton St. and FM 2138. The oldest marked grave is that of Britton Felps Jr. who died in 1850. Contact William A. Carlson, 7121 FM 2138 N. Jacksonville TX 75766, 903-589-0091.
