Go about 2 miles turn right on Co.Rd.318 (will be where road forks),proceed to Co.Rd.318A (will be on left where blacktop road ends and dirt road begins),Cemetery is at end of 318A. This cemetery is obvisiouly an old one and the maintainence of it is about average. It sits in a black walnut grove ,all the trees are walnut with the exception of an ancient cedar that is in the middle. I must warn you about the cedar tree.....it is the home of a bee colony !!! Be VERY CAREFUL around it, there are thousands of bees here that call this old tree home !!! *********************************************************************************** Name Birth Death Notes/Misc. *********************************************************************************** There are approx.19 graves throughout this cemetery that are marked only with a large rock and a metal cross , nothing else. *********************************************************************************** John Asalf ELLIS Jr., 10-26-1928 5-6-1987 PFC US ARMY Korea Joy Dene ELLIS , 2-1-1932 8-30-1995 married John 4-3-1954 Albert ROBERTS , 1909 1986 Ellen(Hodge)ROBERTS , 1912 2000 Welton ROBERTS , 3-11-1937 9-1-1939 Joe Owenton ROBERTS , 12-23-1903 1-6-1974 photo on marker Merl ROBERTS , 7-15-1915 10-15-1932 Archie May ROBERTS , 8-18-1912 2-25-1929 John David ROBERTS , 12-14-1949 8-4-1957 Leo James Roberts , 7-15-1940 4-3-1991 Leo A.ROBERTS , 1-4-1916 10-19-1987 married Gladys Hodge Glayds Hodge ROBERTS, 8-13-1922 5-19-1974 Brandi N.LARSON , our baby 10-15-1975 Vander B.HALL , 1883 1954 father W.B.ROBINSON , 1858 1905 John F.ROBINSON , age 70 years 7-21-1888 Nancy S.ROBINSON , 1863 1907 Kate ROBINSON , 1839 1922 Judge John F.ROBINSON, 1869 1940 Masonic Lodge member John Cleveland McNEIL, 7-16-1862 3-17-1937 buried Edgewood Cem.Crystal City,Tx.
