Boynton Cemetery

 

Submitted by Gloria B. Mayfield Panola Co  Cemeteries of TX

This cemetery has been updated, using the Hawthorn Funeral Home Records plus walking records. FH Records are identified ;by a page number in comments, Use this, plus the death year to locate in the Funeral Home Records. You may find duplicate entries, I left them as such so you can go to the Hawthorn Funeral Home Records for more information. (2009 gbm)

Directions: From Carthage go westbound on State Highway 315 for 13.2 miles to the point where FM 348 intersects to the right. Turn right on to FM 348 and proceed northbound for 1.2 miles to the intersection with Panola County Road 155. Turn left on to CR 155 and proceed westbound for 1.4 miles. The cemetery is located right beside the road on the right side and has an archway over the gate with the name "Boynton Cemetery".

Although the rest of the markers in the cemetery are believed to mark the graves of white people  there is one notable exception. Just inside the front gate and to the right  there is a beautiful marbled pink and black granite marker. This marker is inscribed:

"In memory of Aunt Annie slave of Moses Boynton  died ca 1860. First grave in the cemetery  exact location unknown. This marker dedicated to Annie and any other Boynton slaves buried here. 1989"

Maria Elizabeth (Betty) Hambrick Screws b. June 15  1859 d. Dec 30  1895 from TB   She is the grandD/o  Moses Boynton. Her mother was Antoinette Boynton   who married George Hambrick  He died in a pow camp during the Civil War in   March 1863. Martia Elizabeth Screws is their daughter. Marita Elizabeth   Hambrick married Lucius Screws June 1876 in Van Zandt County at the Hambrick   Plantation and eventually returned to Rusk and Panola Counties before her   death.  Lucuis Screws visited her grave often and intended to put a permanent marker  and plant a tree at her grave but never did. info by Part572752@aol.com
