BOYKIN CEMETERY, Angelina County, Texas was photographed April 22, 2013. We have digital photographs of each individual headstone, and will provide individual pictures to anyone upon
request.
DIRECTIONS: From Zavalla, go south on SR63 about 6.8 miles to the sign for Boykin Cemetery on the left. Turn left on CR345, go about a third of a mile and turn right on CR346 (Guidry
Road) and go about a mile. The driveway to the cemetery is on the left; the cemetery is at the end of the drive.
This is not a public cemetery. A sign at the gate lists contact names and numbers for anyone interested in having a burial in the cemetery.
The cemetery is still in use for burials, and is maintained, though probably not on a regular basis. The day we were there the entire cemetery was overgrown with knee-high white flowers -
probably White Heath Asters.
