Cemeteries

In 1987, the Bosque County Historical Commission published two volumes entitled Bosque County Cemetery Records. These two volumes list all persons buried in the cemeteries at the time of publication. The information also includes dates from the gravestones and, in some cases, the inscriptions from the gravestones. Although these volumes are now out-of-print, they are available for reference at the Bosque County Collection. The Collection is currently converting the information contained in these volumes to a searchable database. The table below lists the cemeteries in Bosque County and within a mile of the county line. If the cemetery has been enumerated in the two-volume Bosque County Cemetery Records, the volume and page number is provided. Several cemeteries were relocated when the Brazos River was dammed up to form Lake Whitney.

* Historical Designations:  THM - Texas Historical Marker, HTC - Historic Texas Cemetery, NR - National Register

The Official Historic Texas Cemetery designation can be obtained through an application process with the Texas Historical Commission. Any individual, organization or agency may submit an application. To receive the designation, the applicant must show proof that the cemetery is at least 50 years old and provide precise information on its location. A processing fee of $25 is required. If a cemetery already has a Historical Marker, certain information requirements in the application can be waived. Once processed, the cemetery is recorded in the county deed records as a historic site and is eligible to display the Historic Texas Cemetery medallion. The medallion can be displayed by itself, as an addition to an already existing Historical Marker, or with a new interpretive plaque with text developed from the history. The cost of the medallion and plaques are additional but are not required for a cemetery to be designated as an Official Historic Texas Cemetery. The designation does not restrict in any way the public use or private owner's use of the land adjacent to the cemetery.
