Germany Cemetery, Houston County, Texas

Please note that the comments column contains my personal observations and things I thought would be helpful. If there is parent information in this column, I obtained it from Houston County birth records. 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
