Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where more poignantly than in a small country graveyard can a traveler fathom the flow of history and tradition? During the past twenty years, Terry G. Jordan has traveled the back roads and hidden trails of rural Texas in search of such cemeteries. With camera in hand, he has visited more than one thousand cemeteries created and maintained by the Anglo-American, black, Indian, Mexican, and German settlers of Texas. His discoveries of sculptured stones and mounds, hex signs and epitaphs, intricate landscapes and unusual decorations represent a previously unstudied and unappreciated wealth of Texas folk art and tradition. Texas Graveyards not only marks the distinct ethnic and racial traditions in burial practices but also preserves a Texas legacy endangered by changing customs, rural depopulation, vandalism, and the erosion of time.

Download or read book Texas Cemeteries written by Bill Harvey and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, Journalistic Achievement Award, Texas Historical Foundation, 2004 From the simplest slab of weathered stone to the most imposing mausoleum, every marker in a Texas cemetery bears witness to a life that—in ways small or large—helped shape the history and culture of the state. Telling the stories of some of these significant lives is the purpose of this book. Within its pages, you'll meet not only the heroes of the Texas Revolution, for example, but also one of the great African American cowboys of the traildriving era (Bose Ikard) and the first woman in Texas elected to statewide office (Annie Webb Blanton). Visiting cemeteries from every era and all regions of the state, Bill Harvey recounts the histories of famous, infamous, and just plain interesting Texans who lie at rest in Texas cemeteries. The book is organized alphabetically by city for easy reference. For each city, Harvey lists one or more cemeteries, giving their location and history, if significant. At the heart of the book are his profiles of the noteworthy people buried in each cemetery. They include not only famous but also lesser-known and even unknown Texans who made important contributions to the state in the arts, sports, business, military service, politics—truly every area of communal life. For those who want to visit these resting places, Harvey also includes tips on finding cemeteries, locating gravesites, and taking good photographs. Spend time with him in the graveyards of Texas, and you'll soon appreciate what fascinating stories the silent stones can tell.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remembering Those Buried Beneath the CedarsSections of the oldest cemeteries in East Texas contain the history of our state. Grave stones "speak" the names of those who were brave enough to seek a new beginning, leave behind loved ones and travel long distances. Who were these men and women? What can we learn from them? Surely their stories are worth remembering and by doing so we honor their efforts. What religions did they practice and where did these settlers establish churches and cemeteries? How did they mark the graves? Seeking answers to these and other questions, I found myself walking through old burial grounds in Cherokee County and began to notice majestic cedar trees. This led me to ponder, would cedar trees be present in other pioneer cemeteries found throughout East Texas and what might the significance be.The first chapter presents an overview of these topics. Chapter Two examines the presence of cedars in cemeteries located in both Texas and Tennessee, suggesting the pioneers not only brought their religion with them but the significance of the cedar tree as well. Over fifty East Texas cemeteries are featured in this publication with stories of settlers buried at each site. The search for cedar trees and pioneer graves took place over a period of several years. In the process, photographs were made at each location. Research consisted of interviews with descendants, time spent in libraries, archives and museums. Additional information was gathered from relevant websites. Especially helpful were documents preserved by Daughters of the Republic of Texas, the Masonic Grand Lodge of Texas, the Texas Historical Commission and Texas State Archives. African American community leaders shared their stories, documents and photographs. The Texas A&M Forest Service provided much needed expertise, with Foresters from the Districts of Jacksonville and Pittsburg as onsite resources.
