They had nine children and almost all of them are buried > in the Hope Cemetery in Parker County, except they lived in Wise County. > What I would like to know is what town/towns are close to the Hope Cemetery > that they might have lived near? > > Shirley in TX Here are several web site links of what I can share with you to help you in your search. I did not find Hope Cemetery in Parker County. 1. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~txparker/ 2. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~txparker/cemetery/index.htm 3. http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=csb&CSst=46 4. http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~drycreek/cem_info.htm I would try these web sites that are part os www.rootsweb.ancestry.com. Are you familiar with this web site? It has the best links to states, counties, towns, and cemeteries listings that I know of. The top link is the main web site for Parker County. There is a link here to lookups that may be valuable. Do you know the highway that Hope Cemetery is near? What town or community? What church? Any other landmark? I did not find Hope Cemetery on the second cemetery list above, but that does not mean it does not exist. Perhaps it does or did have a different formal or informal name. I also tried the www.findagrave.com search for cemetery name by state and county in the 3rd link above. Hopefully someone else can lead you directly to the answer you are trying to find. _________________________________________________________________ Stay up to date on your PC, the Web, and your mobile phone with Windows Live. http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/msnnkwxp1020093185mrt/direct/01/
