At the Hill County WebSite there is a listing of Cemeteries and individual listings. One that I was interested in was the DeGraffenried Cemetery. Below states its relocation to the Whitney Cemetery, so I would think the Whitney is alive and well...(well maybe not so alive or well...its occuptants...grin). I can't imagine any lake made without relocation of all bodies. Would hate to see them float by! "DeGraffenried Cemetery was in Hill Co. Texas. All the bodies with A (dot) were moved to Whitney Cemetery when the lake was put in." Hope this help and excuse my sense of humor. Have a Great Weekend!
I was told that the dam was put over an old cemetery. I had an ancestor buried there. I'm going to look up that old letter & see if the cemetery name was mentioned. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 16, 2001 7:08 PM Subject: Cemetery... > At the Hill County WebSite there is a listing of Cemeteries and > individual listings. > One that I was interested in was the DeGraffenried Cemetery.
