The following information was received from Herberta Taylor Mask in February 2004:

Anderson Cemetery # 3 in Robertson County, out of Bremond on road #46 about 4 miles on the left.
is the Anderson Cemetery.  If walking up the High Line up 3 poles to the right over the fence it is on a little hill.  As for as I know it belongs to the high line people, it is called the Caskey Pasture.

 
It was given by Jacob Henry ANDERSON.

The children are the children of Jacob Henry and Elizabeth Deason (Crouch) Anderson.
Their names are on one shaft.
Jacob and Elizabeth's are single stones.  It seems all these graves are in a row.
 
The other stone:
H. B. JACKSON    full name is Henry Basil Jackson
1846 - 1873            b. December 25 1846 - d. June 22 1873.
 
Henry Basil Jackson married Frances Elizabeth ANDERSON, August 1872.  They had one daughter, Martha "Mattie" Ann Basel JACKSON. born Feb 1874.  Married Alexander Nisbett May 4 1892.
After the death of Henry Basil, Frances Elizabeth ANDERSON, married Phillip Pierce GILBERT.
Gilbert was a 1st cousin of Henry Basil JACKSON.
Frances Elizabeth ANDERSON born Oct 28 1853 died July 22 1891, buried in the Nesbitt Cemetery Robertson Co. TX.
 
I do have pictures of these stones.
 
Elizabeth Deason (Crouch) ANDERSON was my g-g grandmother.  She was married first in Jan 1847 to Thomas Jefferson BARRON, he was shot and killed the end of the same month..  They had one daughter, Eliza Ann BARRON, who married 2nd Cornelious Moses TAYLOR.  Her parents were Isaac CROUCH and Isabelle DEASON.  (Isaac was killed by the Indians June 1 1836.)
Elizabeth and Jacob had a total of 13 children.
 
There is another ANDERSON cemetery.  I don't see you have listed, I have been to it, but I can't tell you exactly where it is.  At about where the Highline is you would turn right off road 46 into a pasture, a house is to the left of the gate setting back from the road.  You would go out behind the house to a fence. It is over the fence and through the woods.  The Cemetery is nearly to the other side of the woods.  WILLIAM DAVID ANDERSON  b. 1828 d. 1886  is buried there.   I also have a picture of his stone.  But I will have to look for it.  This is the only stone there.  There are about 5 or 6 sunken places there.  He married Mary Loftin, January 24 1852. They had one son James born in 1853.  William's Mother may be buried there she was Harriett (Haines) Anderson b about 1801 died Oct 10 1878. 
William David is the brother of Jacob Henry Anderson.
