The Texas Historical Commission’s blog has featured a short article on cemeteries titled Cemetery Queries. The article gives a brief description of how small cemeteries formed and what can happen after they are abandoned or are no longer in the ownership of the original land owner. Cemeteries don’t qualify for maintenance funding, but they can qualify for restoration and educational project grant monies.
It always seems so sad then cemeteries aren’t maintained. It’s nice to hear that they can qualify for some restoration and education project grant funds in TX.
