Chalk

Chalk Cemetery, Walker County, TX

 

The land for this cemetery was donated by our ancestor, Lacy Harrington, in the 1870's. It has several historical markers in it and is beautifully kept. It has serviced the Kittrell community for over 100 years. Oral history indicates that there may be more burials here, unmarked.

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.

The Chalk Cemetery is located in the City of Kittrell, Walker County, Texas. This cemetery was transcribed by Letty Harrington on April 16, 2000. This transcription is not connected to the Chalk Cemetery, the City of Kittrell or the County of Walker. This information is a personal project only. The information herein is given freely for personal use and can not be linked to any commerical sites. *NOTE: This was transcribed using a digital camera. I am in the process of uploading images for each headstone. Names listed here with link will show a picture of the headstone when you click on it. Project should be complete by June 2001.

Memorial Marker for Edward Mansell and Angelina Avery at the entrance to the cemetery.
