Posted on: Callahan County, Tx Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Tx/Callahan/404 Surname: Teague ------------------------- I am trying to locate the Lost Creek cemetery. I'm not sure if it is in Callahan Co., Eastland Co. or Brown Co. I have been told that my g-g grandfather is buried there. His name was John Henry Teague, son of J.R. Teague and father of Charlie Alton Teague, Sr. If any one can tell me where it is located and if there is a list of all burials please e-mail me at TBBM@prodigy.net Thanks, Brandi Teague
A genealogist should have lots of tools in his/her bag of tricks. Here's one of mine: http://mapping.usgs.gov/www/gnis/gnisform.html Simply type in a name (cemetery, etc) and see what happens. The info from the above site appears at the end of this msg. I actually cheated- I already knew that Lost Creek Cemetery was in Brown County. By the way, this cemetery is listed at the Brown County page at TxGenWeb by its other name, which is Hog Creek Cemetery. I also recommend that anyone who lives in Texas buy a copy of "The Roads of Texas." This book is available at most book stores, I would think. It is invaluable. The publisher's website (and no, I don't work for them): http://www.shearerpub.com/ Good luck on finding your ancestor!
