This cemetery is very large and holds at least three styles of buial. The oldest section has raised headstones as seen above, dirt roads etc.,
but the middle section of the cemetery is a little newer, a little better taken care of with raised markers and concrete paths, while the newest sections are more like a park with flat headstones and lots of landscaping.

Location: Southwest side of Lamesa on Cemetery Road.
