I went to the Dallas library today specifically to look up the information from the Grimes County cemetery books, and found not a one of them on the shelves (probably mis-shelved somewhere, but I couldn't find them). So I'd like to request a look-up from one of you who has the book(s). I'm trying to confirm the location, and obtain whatever information the grave stones might offer, for: John Hamill Wilson, d. 1887, and his wife Mary Adeline (Graves) Wilson, d. after 1900; and Hugh Hamill Wilson, d. 1913. I think both are buried in Navasota's Oakland Cemetery. Thanks.
If you can wait until Monday I will look this up for you. I volunteer in Genealogy in the Rusk County Library in Henderson and have purchased all 4 volumes of the Grimes County Cemetery Books for the library. I work on Wednesdays but am going in Monday to look up some things for myself and will be glad to do a lookup for you. Let me know if you get a better response from someone.
