Long Branch Cemetery

Panola Co  Cemeteries of TX

Photos and Submitted by Gloria B. Mayfield (2003)

Update and plot info by Ray Brady (2004)

Carthage go west on State Highway 315 for approximately 13miles to the intersection of FM 348. Turn right on to FM 348 and proceed northbound for 1.2 miles to the intersection with Panola County Road 155. Turn right on to CR 155 and first turn to the left is CR 161, the cemetery is located on the left.  The Cemetery is chain link fence and is well taken care of.  

The first grave in the Long Branch Cemetery was that of my ggrandparents' son in 1877. They were Dr. William Howard and Margaret (Maggie) Ruth Morris Ash. Margaret is the daughter of Francis  Reed, daughter of Rev. Isaac and Elizabeth Harper Reed.  Shortly after the death of this infant, the Ash Family moved to Devine, Tx,  south of San Antonio.  Then after Dr. Ash's Death, Maggie Ruth moved to Winters, Runnels Co. Tx to be near her daughter Ida Francis Ash Briley. (written by Gloria B. Mayfield)

"I am a Trustee of the Long Branch cemetery and I wanted to send you an update..  Also you will see that the spreadsheet lists a row and plot.  The rows begin at the front of the cemetery with "A"  second row "B" and so forth, proceeding  to the back to "I".  The plot designations are a little more complicated.  They run from right to left if you are facing the front gate from outside as depicted in your picture grave 1, grave 2 and etc and marked empty spaces as best I could determine". Ray Brady
