"Remember, Man as you pass by As you are now so once was I
As I am now you all must be so let the Lord your Pilot be"
Son of Christian Carver and Mary (Polly) Ziegler
Donated land for the Scyene Masonic Lodge and School in 1867. In the Dallas County Courts records He sued the Master of the Lodge in 1881. I have yet to discover if he was a Mason or what the lawsuit was about.
***The earliest marked grave in the cemetery is that of Abraham Carver and the next burial was that of Elizabeth, his wife. Two of Abraham and Elizabeth's children are in this plot, Clara Spradling and Sarah Brown (1833 – 1906). Elizabeth's adopted daughter, Hattie Bell Carver Rogers (1874 – 1889) and her husband William Rogers (1870 – 1925) whose grave site is marked by a Woodman of the World stone here. Five generations of Sara Carver Brown's family are included in this site. Sara's daughter Nettie Boener (1852 – 1889), Nettie's daughter-in-law Blanche Bell Bray (1881 – 1925), Blanche's granddaughter (1916 – 19??), and Beverly Denny who died as an infant in 1940. The last burial, the one for Cris Carver, born in 1866, took place in 1946.
Abraham Carver's land was near the wagon trail called Scyene Road and from time to time, if someone died along the trail they were buried in this cemetery. The community of Scyene disappeared after 1873 when the route of the Texas and Pacific Railroad bypassed the trail making Mesquite the depot town.
This branch of the Carver family is descended from Michael Carver in Philadelphia in 1727 to Christian Carver (1759 – 1838). Christian served in the Revolutionary War and received a pension.
