The following data is copied by Elsie Ottinger with permission of Patsy Goebel from the Cemetery Records of DeWitt County Vol. Patsy and Karen McWhorter with the help of others surveyed many cemeteries starting in 1985. I have tried to accurately copy this data.

Located on private property on the lower Mission Valley Road near Thomaston. An old iron fence surrounds this cemetery with a chain link fence around the iron fence. Inside of the fence is very grown up and some tombstones are broken. Surveyed by Bobby Goebel, Patsy Goebel and Ike Rabel.

There is one grave marked "Minnie", no other information.

There is one unknown male buried near the gate that was traveling through
and froze to death near this location. No one knew him and there was no
one that came to look for him.
