     The Old Larissa cemetery is located just southwest of the site of the old town of Larissa.  Heading west from Mt. Selman, Texas, on FM 855, turn left on CR 3405.  Go about 1/4 mile and turn right on CR 3411.  Go about 300 yards or just past CR 3435.  The cemetery is on the left on a hillside, through a metal cattle gate.  The oldest part of the cemetery is enclosed in a rectangular chain-link fence and contains graves of some early white settlers.  To the East and south of this fenced area, mostly in the woods and undergrowth are graves of both white people and people of African-American descent.  To the north and west of the fenced area are the graves of people of African-American descent only.  There are undoubtedly markers in the south and east wooded area that we did not find.  Clearing of the area there would most likely yield more information.
