I can find out the persons responsible for getting this accomplished and you can contact them to find out how they went about it. There are laws in Texas to punish those who destroy cemeteries, but the person still has to be caught, which may be hard in some cases, and sometimes a seldom used cemetery may go awhile before the deed is discovered. It is vandalism at it's worst! I believe it was mentioned on the Lenoir list that the Sheriff was responsible for starting the investigation. Rose
