Researchers of De Leon Cemetery
De Leon Cemetery, Comanche County, Texas
Located 5 blocks west of downtown De Leon, this cemetery includes over 5,500 identified graves and many unidentified graves. Many heartfelt thanks to the dedicated family and friends who gathered this data in June 2000. The tireless efforts of Fayne and Ruby Pair to get this record accurate and complete will be of great benefit to this community for years to come. Updated April 2013. Submitted by Elayne Pair Gibbons.
The cemetery is divided into sections in a simple grid format, beginning with A on the north side proceeding to E on the south. #1 starts on the west side, proceeding to #13 on the east. Section #s are listed at the end of each name, thus ..A1 would be found in the northwest corner of the cemetery, while ..C6 would be near the center. The Veteran’s Memorial Shed is in ..E4. This data may be freely copied and used by any person or their agent, or any library, but may not be sold or reposted elsewhere.
