The Carrington Cemetery was established about 1900 and is administered
by the
Carrington Cemetery Association. The cemetery serves the black community
of
Seven Oaks, Texas. It was named for Frank C. Carrington who was born
on the
property in 1856. The cemetery is very large in size and is enclosed
by a chain-link
fence. Adjacent to the entrance of this cemetery is a separate
chain-link fenced
section with a separate gate entrance. In this section are the graves
of the members
of the Carrington Family.
Location: At the intersection of U.S. Highway 59 and Carrington
Road in
Seven Oaks, Texas, go East on Carrington Road (paved)
for two miles.
The road ends at the entrance to the cemetery.
