Boontown Chalk

Boontown Cemetery, Trinity County, Texas

This cemetery is well maintained and is down a small dirt road east of Trinity, Texas.P>

Please note that the comments column contains my personal observations and things I thought would be helpful. Also, I recorded every marker, which means, one person may be recorded twice if they had two markers (i.e. a military marker in addition to their family marker). If you have any questions after viewing the list, please e-mail me at Letty Harrington.
