Stanfield Walker Cemetery ~ Lacy Lakeview, McLennan County, Texas
This cemetery is on Hwy 77 (east side) right in Lacy-Lakeview. It is enclosed with wrought-iron fencing on the front and south sides and cedar fencing on the other sides.  It is well maintained and it appears as though many markers have been replaced in recent years.  There is a historical marker on the site erected by the family of Sarah Ann V. Walker that reads: Widow of Jacob Walker, said to have been last man to die in the Alamo. Born in Louisiana in 1811. Married and came to Texas 1829, and to this area 1844. Received Republic of Texas Land Grant No. 1, Sabine County, a league and labor E. of the Brazos. Once rode horseback 300 mi. to warn Gen. Sam Houston of an impending Indian attack. Her burial site, about 100 ft. to the south, set aside in perpetuity by her grandson, George Anthony Stanfield. This marker erected by her descendants, through McLennan County Historical Survey Committee, 1965. (Texas Historical Commission)
