HARVEY CEMETERY, San Augustine County, Texas: transcribed July 12 2008 from digital photographs of each tombstone taken the previous day. Updated June 27, 2020
DIRECTIONS: This cemetery is located just southwest of Broaddus, Texas, on SR147; 1.3 miles from the junction of 147 and FM83. It is on a horseshoe driveway called CR3439, 11.4 miles north of the junction of US69 and SR63 in Zavalla. Because of the number of "Coleman" names here, I should mention that a transcription of the "Coleman" cemetery, located a few miles from this site, is also available online.
These small flat, rectangular stones, presumably some of the graves relocated in advance of the flooding of the lake, are transcribed exactly as they read:

NOTE 1: There is conflicting information concerning Maurine Runnels Harvey posted at "Find-a-Grave". This is Reba Maurine (Runnels) Harvey whose first husband was Garland Wagner, who is buried in Magnolia Cemetery, Beaumont, Texas. Maurine is buried in Runnels Cemetery in San Augustine County, & shares a headstone there with her son Jimmey Wagner.
NOTE 2: I found conflicting information on Katie (Catherine) online. If the information from the 1900 Census is correct, Katie was born in 1880, 19 years old, married to Clifford Harvey (who was 19 years her senior) when she was 15, and had 2 natural children. Another source indicates she died in Jan 1900, but was alive in June of that year when the census was taken.
NOTE 3: Mollie Docie Wise Harvey, daughter of John Impson Wise Sr, and wife of Stephen Prather Harvey, was the Aunt of my Aunt Margie Wise who was married to my mother's brother Ennis Ovie Stringer. I have been in more than 120 east Texas cemeteries and am always surprised to stumble across a name of someone in my family tree.
