This very large cemetery sits right on the fringe of the small town of Salado, less than 1/2 a mile east of I35 of which you can hear in the background. It is remarkably well organized and tended to with a gravel road running through some entrances. On the north end of the property you'll find the older gravemarkers from the late 1800s and early 20th century. All of these older headstones have been well cleaned, cared for and restored. Most of the family plots here are covered in P gravel with concrete borders. I found 8 Texas historical signs (there might be more!) relating to the cemetery and some of its notable occupants. To be honest, I have never seen so many Texas historical signs in a cemetery, there's a lot of history in the folks buried here. At the south end of the property are the newer interments including a covered area for a memorial. On the far south side, there is still quite a number of acres available for future interments in case you're interested. The 10 photos included don't even begin to capture the scope of this amazing piece of property. If you're a Texas history buff this would be a good place to stop. read more
