Garden of Memories Woodland 600
Lufkin, Angelina Co. Cemeteries of TX
Submitted by Debra Coursey Pitts and son D. J.
This is a perpetual care cemetery, very
well maintained. Enormous in it's entirety. This list will never be "current" as
there are burials at this cemetery every day, they will only be current on the
date of survey. So if you have a loved one here and do not see their name , it
only means their marker was not present at time of my survey OR they have
no maker . This cemetery has limited space ,so even though there is a "space"
with no marker it does not mean that there is no one buried there, just that
there is no marker OR the space is purchased for future burials.
Information will be copied "as is" on the marker / tombstones. (abbreviation of
some words)
Surveyed by Debra Coursey-Pitts,Dec.2004.
Survey current as of this date only.
