Apparently, viewing your loved one prior is optional and at the discretion of the funeral home. Not likely. Once your loved on arrives at the cemetery the casket cannot be opened. The program includes seeing the closed casket for 20 minutes at the Travis County Wells School Cemetery Pavilion. You must leave the property during internment for 1hr to 1hr 1/2. They will mark the grave with a stake with the deceased persons name written on it until a small name plate is placed upon the concrete right next to their grave. If you have no options, just be prepared for what to expect.

This is a small cemetery that sits on less than an acre on Caldwell Lane just behind a mobile home…read morepark. This is still an active cemetery with just a handful of graves on it with much more room for future residents. There is an access point on Caldwell Lane, but unfortunately it looks like someone just drove right through the gate destroying it. There is no sign denoting the name of the cemetery but there is another cemetery nearby called Comanche Cemetery North. Considering its location I was surprised to see that the grass was well mowed and the graves were well tended. However being such a small cemetery there is no road of any sort leading into it so you'll just have to park just past the gate. The primary name that I could find here was Haws and in the corner of the cemetery is a large oak tree that obscures some fallen older gravestones. I did not spot any historical names here, unlike the nearby Hainy Church cemetery. It should be pointed out that just a couple hundred feet south of the cemetery lie additional headstones in a field along Caldwell. However, they are not as easily seen because this field is overgrown with weeds and the graves don't appear to be cared for. There's not a whole lot to see at this site, but there's room enough to make it your forever home.

Sadly this is one of those cemeteries directly off the road that is so heavily overgrown with grass…read moreand weeds that it is impossible to see any headstones. It's just behind a barbed wire fence which denotes private property. The only thing left of this graveyard is a rusty archway which was once the entryway. There is another cemetery just a few hundred yards away called the Hunter family cemetery which is in much better condition by far. As for this cemetery, there is literally nothing to stop and see.

This cemetery sits off highway 71 just a couple miles after the tollway heading east on Greenwood…read moreDr. It sits directly across the street from the Haynie Chapel Methodist Church. Most of the graves that sit within this 2 to 3 acre enclosure are primarily from the 20th century and later. There are a handful of stones from the 1800s. This is still a very active cemetery with many well adorned gravesites from the surviving family members. The cemetery looks relatively well-maintained although a handful of older headstones are lying on their sides. There is still some space for future interments, but it is mostly full. There are three entrances to the property with a single gravel lane winding through the property. For the most part the graves are laid out in neat rows and some family plot areas, but there is still a little bit of randomness in some of the graves as to how they fit in. I did spot three historical names here that are tied to Austin/Round Rock history. There were several graves dedicated to the name Gattis (Gattis School Rd) and Boatright and at least one to Bohls. The Boatright name seemed to be the most prominent name in the cemetery. Two other names that I found in number here are Templeton and Summers. There are some service members buried here along with 3 confederate soldiers, 2 of them are of the Boatright name. If you're looking for a forever home or just want to check out some names of history, this place is worth a visit.

I was actually surprised to see a large well-manicured cemetery located almost a quater of a mile…read moredown a difficult to drive gravel road just off of Webberville Rd (aka FM-969). I don't recommend driving a small compact car down this single lane rough road because of the unevenness of it. The cemetery has a hundred or more graves, many of which are of the name Hornsby. Two things I noticed, there were quite a number of graves that had the "daughters of the republic" seal on them. The other thing I observed was that there were quite a number of Texas Rangers crosses as well. The cemetery is filled with some figures of local Texas history. And like a lot of graveyards from the 1800s, sadly quite a number of those graves are infants and children. I did find two large stone historical markers, but not a Texas historical sign. There's a sign on the entry gate where you can email questions to. Immediately next-door to the cemetery there's another cemetery called Cementario Mexicano. So if you're looking for a really nice cemetery to visit, I would recommend this place, but be sure to drive an off road vehicle or pick up to get there. The photos below help with the history.

Ellen takes excellent care of the grounds, information, and families.

This burial park is so peaceful and lovely, I purchased my plot today.
