J.B. Sanders did comprehensive research on those buried in Shelby County, and wrote a book entitled "Our Dead" which lists all of the dead that he could identify thru funeral home records, cemetery records, tombstones, etc. It includes unmarked graves where some record existed. It is an excellent source of information for those doing research in Shelby County. The book is no longer in print but is still available in some libraries in some counties in east Texas. J.B. Sanders also wrote two books on marriages in Shelby County, one indexed according to grooms and the other indexed according to brides. They are excellent resources also. Doyle T. Brittain
