ROCKY MOUNT BAPTIST CHURCH CEMETERY, San Augustine County, Texas, was photographed and transcribed March 9, 2011. We photographed each headstone, and will provide pictures to anyone who
asks.
DIRECTIONS: From Denning on SR21, turn north on FM354 and go about 6 miles to CR203 (just past the sharp right turn at CR250) and turn right. Go about a mile on 203 to the church on the
left. The cemetery is behind the church, which appears to be no longer used for services.
"FHM" indicates a metal funeral home marker. Inscriptions are recorded here as they appear on the individual headstones; information in parentheses is not on the marker but was added by the
researcher. Some headstones were worn and/or weathered and difficult to read; if we had to guess, we made a note of that. Some tombstones had sunk into the ground, and were excavated to expose
information.
Names are listed here in alphabetical order by Last Name only, so that individuals with the same surname buried next to each other appear together here.
This is an African-American Cemetery.
