Index of Cemeteries

 

When we have the time, we revisit some of the earlier cemeteries listed here and update the information. We photograph the headstones of the burials occuring after our original visit, and update existing information as necessary.  Cemetery names & dates of updates appear here.

THE FOLLOWING CEMETERIES ARE SCHEDULED BUT HAVE NOT YET BEEN VISITED AND PHOTOGRAPHED, BUT WILL BE WHEN THEIR TURN COMES.  The cemeteries with an * asterisk are known by us to have family members (some distant, some close relatives) so we will likely visit them first. If you know of a cemetery not listed that you would like us to visit and enter here, let me know the name and location. Please be aware that we do not make overnight travels, so it must be a cemetery in reasonable proximity to Lufkin, TX - perhaps not more than a 2 - 2.5 hour drive.

Although I haven't ventured into Rusk County yet, there is one cemetery just outside Mt. Enterprise that I intend to clean up, mow, and photograph as soon as I can get to it:
