Walker Cemetery - Grapeland, Houston Co., TX

WALKER CEMETERY - GRAPELAND

When the Walker estate located west of Grapeland was sold in 1997, the heirs retained the ownership of the 9/10 acre of the cemetery.

Directions from Grapeland: FM227 for 3.5 miles, turn left onto CR2170 for 3.8 miles. Turn right onto a dirt road, go through three
gates. After the third gate, there is a small house, close to the old homeplace. Go past the house and turn right; go about 100 yds. and turn left, cross a small wash and turn right to the cemetery. It is in a grove of pine trees and is surrounded by a chain link fence. Elizabeth Bright of the Historical Commission gathered the information about this cemetery in 1998.
