Ebenezer Cemetery
Arp, Smith County, Texas
Ebenezer Cemetery is located just outside the small East Texas
town of Arp, and is near Troup and Omen. Many family members of the
Overton, Childress, Barron and associated names have "permanent homes"
here. I can vividly recall the lowering of the caskets of my
Childress grandparents, William Thomas and wife Mary Frances ("Fannie")
into their respective graves. I have included a miscellany of photos of
the tombstones in this small, but restive, cemetery. I could well find
myself there someday in the future, but hopefully not too soon!
