Fort Hancock Cemetery

Hudspeth Co. Cemeteries of Tx

Compiled by Lillian Trujillo

This list is a partial enumeration of the cemetery. These are burial records from the Fort Hancock Cemetery, Fort Hancock, TX.

Benjamin Franklin Howe and Guy Howe, both killed in a gunfight January 31, 1911, buried on the spot at Ft. Hancock.  0.25 mi N of the Old Ft. Hancock Ruins, between I-10 and Hwy 20.

NOTE: If a name bears an asterix (*) next to it, the record indicated the person was buried at "Hancock," rather than Fort Hancock, though it seems likely that it was Fort Hancock, shortened on the death record. "Camprice" or "Cambrais" is "Camp Rice," the former name of Fort Hancock. I have not been to the Fort Hancock Cemetery so cannot comment on the state of the graves. I include this note for accuracy.
