Old De Leon Cemetery
De Leon, Comanche Co., Texas, is
located on the east side
of town, a quarter mile south of Hwy. 6,
behind the fairgrounds.
A green sign on
Hwy. 6 points out the turnoff.
There are approximately 70 graves marked by
fieldstones,
piles of rock, depressions, or illegible markers.
Many of the
remaining stones are very difficult to read.
This cemetery is fenced, mowed,
shady, and open to the public.
Copied 18 Aug 1999, photos added June 2011, and submitted by
