"Rootsweb no longer hosts any TXGenWeb pages, state, county, archives, etc. All links going to Rootsweb are broken. If you see a link to a Rootsweb page here please let me know." NOTE: I only do transcribing and helping people with genealogical research. I have nothing to do with the cemetery, so if you are looking for information on purchasing plots or rules and regulations of the cemetery, contact the caretaker or a local funeral home. |

On September 11, 2024, Laura Gregory Roberts and Jane Keppler visited the cemetery and took quite a few pictures that will upload soon. The cemetery is in deplorable condition and and needs cleaned up. A HUGE tree had fallen on top of tombstones. Tombstones and markers are in a very wooded area along the back fence and proper clothing is needed to get to them. This is so sad to see.
