Elm Grove Cemetery (B)
Wharton County, Cemeteries of Texas
Submitted by Lois Kennedy
Cemeteries of Texas Coordinator: Dolores I. Bishop
This is a fairly large Negro cemetery, which has 99 grave markers, and there may be others that are not marked. The oldest death date on a marker is Mar 03 1910 so the cemetery has been there at least 85 years.
The cemetery is in quadrant II. It was surveyed by Sammy Tise on Feb 01 1995. To get to the cemetery go south on FM 102 to CR 267, turn right and go to the intersection of CR 267 and Cr 240. The cemetery is on the left at that intersection. The gate faces CR 267.
