Hello, Welcome to my web site.
Most of these cemeteries I recorded in 1984 and 1986. I covered most of eastern, southern and central Harris County,Texas. I'm am now going back and redoing old listings.
A really great source that I like to use is ( by TREVIA WOOSTER BEVERLY) AT REST: A HISTORICAL DIRECTORY OF HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS, CEMETERIES (1822-2001) INCLUDING BURIAL CUSTOMS
Published by Tejas Publications & Research

I am a vocational archaeologists(1972), vocational paleontologists(1972) and
I have been a vocational historian and writer of Harris County,Texas since 1984 and Family Genealogy starting in 1985.
Being a native born Houstonian, (1959),Houston Heights, I have seen countless cemeteries disappear over the years.
By listing those cemeteries that are no longer in use or lost forever I can save a little part of Harris County history.
Cemeteries are wonderful places so full of history and art. Some are sad too...... So many need to be saved!!!!
