Here is the picture and description of the cemetery that is being searched for. Not a great picture, I know, but you can make out the headstones, the elongated mounds, and household objects. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/tx/bowie/cemsearch.html <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/tx/bowie/cemsearch.html">Bowie Co. Cemetery Search</A> All of the headstones are alike, and there are household objects lovingly placed around the graves. The graves themselves are long mounds, elongated. University at Austin has a book and the cemetery was talked about. I was so amused by the cemetery picture that I asked if I could make an overhead projection of the image and the author said yes. The librarian made it right there. I use it amongst others in my talks about cemeteries and especially southern ones. Above is a scan of the image. Perhaps your group can figure out which one it is. SOMEONE has to know about this fascination. I have seen similar in Texas, but this one indeed takes the cake. I had figured that it would be so well known in the county ..... unless it was missed, for if the caretaker was gone now, it might be mistaken for a dump, if weeds grew up in it. I wanted to come and take color pictures . It is an old tradition, especially the mounding of the graves, I just hadn't seen one this elongated. I do not have the Book Authors name, but it definitely said Bowie County Texas and it is a white race family. Thankyou for your help! [email protected] (Susan Hawkins) Fannin Co.
