Transcript contributed by H.
L. Jacobs, March 2005
The
Skillern Cemetery is located south east of Nacogdoches. From the
intersection of Loop 224 and TX 21 travel 13.5 miles on TX 21 to
CR 434. Turn south (right) on CR 434 and travel 1.5 miles. Turn
west (right) onto CR 430 and travel 1.2 miles over dirt roads to
the cemetery; at one point the road will split and you should
take the right fork. Signs at the turns mark the cemetery turns
but these appear to be private signs and may not be maintained
by the state.
CAUTION: This cemetery is in
a very secluded wooded area and should not be visited alone. It
also should not be visited after rainfall as the dirt roads get
very muddy and treacherous.
Alternate directions from H. L. Jacobs:
Go east out of Nacogdoches,Texas on highway 21 through Melrose
to Sand Hill; turn right on CR 432 & go app. 1 & 6/10
miles and there will be a cemetery sign; turn right, this will
be at a curve in the road. go 6/10 mile to fork in road, take
the rightfork; go another 6/10 mile and you should be at the
cemetery.
