Location:
12 mi. W of Palo Pinto on US 180.
Historical Marker: According to local tradition,
a young girl died as her family traveled past Thomas Lindsey's
land in the 1870s. A short time later, Lindsey buried his sister
near the girl's grave. The earliest marked grave is that of Tump
Mapes (June-October 1877). The Lindsey Cemetery was deeded to
William and Ada Graves in 1911, shortly after the site became
known as Ioni Cemetery. In 1929 the land was conveyed to trustees
Cozby, Fitzgerald, and Slemmons; it became known as Brad Cemetery
in the 1940s. The cemetery association was incorporated in 1973.
With more than 400 graves, the cemetery continues to serve the
people of the area. (1998)
