Unofficial Listing of Ebony Cememtery



I have started surveying Mills county cemeteries in 1997- for the listing page I had made in October 1996 of all the Mills County cemeteries, but due to health reasons in 1998 was unable to complete it until the end of the year 2000 - and now am in the process of taking and retaking photo's

Historical marker is Accidently entered under San Saba County on the Texas State Historical Commission Web Site Database  

The Legend is as follows;

TYPE

DS = Double Headstone
SS = Single Headstone
FM = Funeral Home Marker (whenever possible, Funeral home name will be in "Notes/Other") However I have learned that some Cemetery Assoc had Funeral Markers made up from the local funeral home and placed on the unknown and other graves and are not necessary the funeral home that handled the arrangements. I do not know if that has happened at this cemetery.
N/A = Not known
Rock = Sandstone or other type rock marker

I have made all attempts to avoid mistakes, but I am after all only human, If there are any errors, I am truly sorry and will make note of any errors brought to my attention.

Martha McClung Carroll sent this picture and comment to Beth Everett

“Sylvia had a terrific photo on display that I had never seen before – taken when Dutch was principal at Ebony school, with the basketball team. Gene is on the team. You will probably want to print this one so not reducing it much in dpi so you can get a good print. I did lots of work repairing it. (Larger size of photo available thru Beth Everett) Maybe someone can identify some of the other boys. “
