PLEASE NOTE: This cemetery is located in an area that has very sandy, moist soil with abundant crayfish activity , causing many gravesites / stones / markers etc. to sink . We have tried to be as accurate as we could be under these circumstances however several sites may not show complete dates because of being partially sunken and unreadable. Location: 2.2 miles west of Lufkin,Texas off Hwy.94W , go right on Freeman Cemetery Road. This cemetery is in 2 parts , the road divides it .The left side is the oldest w/ the right side being the newest. The names will be listed as "left or right side of road". RIGHT SIDE : listed in burial order from back to front.
