Jane Bowen Hardin was the wife of famous western outlaw John Wesley Hardin, and the daughter of Neill Bowen.
The cemetery is located off Mound Creek Road. Location: From Victoria take Highway 72 to Yortown, then go right on 119 to Mound Creek Rd. That angles off to the right. It is about 5 to 6 miles from the turn off. It is on private land probably about 1/2 mile off of Mound Creek Rd. This land lies right on the county lines from Karnes and Gonzales.
I got the directions & Photos from Patsy Hand.∼south of Smiley on a gravel road to the highway from Gillette to Yorktown on the east side of the road near Mound Creek school house.it is about 3 miles past Nopal and there is a sign on the left side of the road noting the Spellmann and Nooney ranch near a wooden bridge. if traveling from Yorktown, go through Old Davy and turn east at the gravel road just past Bagman black angus farm (about 4 miles from Yorktown); travel east, then bear left past Mound Creek school house, and it is the 2nd wire gate on the right. a windmill can be seen from the road. you have to a short walk toward the windmill, then turn left and the path ends at the cemetery.
jane hardin is the wife of john wesley hardin (outlaw).
