Union Cemetery

contributed by Sheila Funderburk
Additions by Donzas
Homecoming and Memorial Day Service the first Saturday in June each year. There is a program at 10:15am and then basket lunch in the fellowship hall of the church. It is open for anyone to come and join us.
Located about 6 miles south east of Sulphur Springs off State Highway 154 then left or east on County Road 1444 six tenths of a mile to the top of the hill. The 2 1/2 acre cemetery is on the right and the Union Baptist Church and parsonage are to the left.
In 1985 we erected a Tx. Historical Marker at the front gate which gives the earliest documented grave with only a small stone with initials on it to mark the site in the cemetery as 1861 and the oldest marked grave is dated 1875. We believe the cemetery goes back to 1850 but no proof has been found to support this.
There are 412 marked or known graves in the cemetery at this time. We know that there are more than 30 graves that knowledge of who they are or exactly where the graves were has been lost over the years. There were 125 small granite markers purchased to mark graves with when the cemetery committee made the decision to quit rounding up the graves and plant grass to stop erosion in 1965. At the time many of the names were known but as the old ones passed away the information was lost. To date I have documented the names and some of the dates of 80 of the graves. In 1992 the cemetery association members raised enough money to put a granite marker along the front fenceline that includes the names of those known to be buried in the cemetery.
The following list will be in alphabetical order by last name with the womens maiden names given where known.
I have more information on this cemetery than can be included here and am always glad to share any information with those interested.
Feel free to contact Sheila for more information at any time, Sec. for Union Cemetery Assoc.
