This little cemetery is on private property about 3 miles east of the Rogers Hill cemetery on FM 969 - Webberville Rd. It is not the so called Burleson-Rogers cemetery adjoining Rogers Hill. It appears to be on land that was original land grant of J Burleson next to J Duty. Some of the burials here that have been documented by a family researcher who photographed the markers many years ago are of early settlers who have been mistakenly attached to the wrong cemeteries. I have taken a long trip down there to try getting access to it, I have spoken to the person who took the photographs attached, a man having access to it who works on clearing it from time to time and I have permission from the Burleson Family Association to post parts of the article and pictures here. I have filed a Notice of Existence with Travis County Clerk and the Texas Historical Commission. The pictures are copyrighted other than viewing here.
I have added memorials for those who can be documented and proven to be buried here - including my ancestor John S Burleson - it's just about getting to the truth because this is called FIND A GRAVE and through considerable effort have found the TRUE graves, unlike the original contributors of some memorials who did not - so for that reason some of these may appear to be duplicates, but these true graves/memorials trump the false ones.
