Year Erected: 1970

 

     Organized 1859 by 11 charter members; worship held regularly since. Z. N. Morrell and Judge R. E. B. Baylor were among early missionaries holding services in the settlers' log cabins. George Harlan deeded 28 acres for church, school, and cemetery in 1873. Land is part of grant given by Mexico in 1835 to his father, Doctor Isaiah Harlan. The first church building also housed an early school. Church has sponsored annual "May Day Singing" since 1887. Descendants still attend. The third (present) sanctuary was built here in 1908.

·         This inventory was done by Marion Garrett Gibbs in 1988
Some names and dates are not recorded as they appear on the tombstones
Complete names and maiden names were added by Marion Garrett Gibbs

·         Pictures taken and submitted by Carol Couch

·         Updated and transcribed by Kay Cunningham 2008.  I will update when new info is submitted

·         If you can give me or read missing inscriptions, please let Kay know

·         All info and pictures submitted by Carol Couch unless otherwise noted

·         Be sure to check the ones in the ‘Note’ part.  They will have a closer view of the dates and inscriptions

 

There are many tombstones here that are broken or damaged and one day there will be nothing

left of some.  This is why we all must help preserve as many as we can by taking

pictures of them for our many future generations down the line.

So please, think about taking pictures of a cemetery

 near your home wherever that may be.

 

Additions, corrections, and pictures are always welcome!
Please send to
