READ: This is a research project of the
Waco-McLennan County Library, the McLennan County Cemetery Interest
Group and the Projects Committee of the Central Texas Genealogical
Society. This is a working inventory of McLennan County area
cemeteries. It includes cemeteries outside the McLennan
County boundaries because it is a study of population areas rather than
geographic or political boundaries. There are cemeteries
outside the county line in which the burials are all or mostly McLennan
County residents (ex: National Cemetery in Hill
County). This project is in progress and
information can be expected to change or to be updated from time to
time. The earliest tombstone found to date is an 1850 burial
in Liberty Grove Cemetery (predates the 1850 burial in
Cobbs-Walker). However, there were certainly many burials
prior to 1850. There are additional private land burials that
have not yet been added to the list. This is a long list with detailed
information. Scroll to the right to view all of the
information. (C) 2003 McLennan County Cemetery Interest
Group, City of Waco. Do not reprint without permission. |

Where
did we get this cemetery name? -- reference burial?
Dr. Alexander Montgomery "landed" at Waco Village, November 20,
1851. In a few weeks, his wife traded two bed quilts and a
rag carpet which had been made in Kentucky, for ten acres of land, part
of which is now in the city of Waco. |
