This is unquestionably one of the most well-maintained, organized and manicured cemeteries you will…read morefind anywhere in the state. It is directly behind the Palm Valley Lutheran Church which is a historical building. All the graves are very well laid out and ordered primarily into family burial plots. There are acres of old headstones , recent ones and some waiting to be interred in their future plot. There is a single paved lane that runs through the center of the cemetery dividing the old and the new graves. I'm sure many of these headstones belong to the Who's Who of Round Rock and local history. This is still an active cemetery and I found several recent graves from 2022. There is also more room for additional plots on the back side should you decide this is the place to be your forever home. The church had a historical marker, but I did not see one for the cemetery. The pictures in this review don't fully capture just how beautiful this place is.

It sits directly behind the walnut creek Baptist church on top of a hill. There are graves that date as far back to the 1880s, but most are from the 20th century and newer. It is a well-maintained and manicured cemetery with a road that allows you to drive into it. The most notable names I saw in numbers here were Gault and Neans. To a lesser extent there was also Morrow and Sweet. I did not find a Texas historical marker nor did I see anywhere that had a full listing of those interred here. It's possible the church next to the graveyard may well have that information. The cemetery appears to have almost reached near capacity, but there's still a little space left for future residents. Plenty of photos below to gain your interest.

This cemetery was obviously established back in the late 1800s because today it sits on some very…read morevaluable real estate. In other words, when this graveyard was established, I 35 was probably a two lane dirt road with horse and buggies going back and forth. Today it literally sits on the northbound feeder road of I 35 and the corner of Dean Keeton with thousands of cars rushing by. It has two points of entry along the feeder road with a gravel road running through the middle of the cemetery linking both of them. It is at least 3 to 5 acres in size and there are hundreds of headstones. Much of the cemetery is organized into family plots with their surrounding borders. The cemetery could use some work, as the grass was unmowed, the trees looked really scraggly, the entrance gate was broken off and there were a number of toppled headstones. There are quite a number of graves from the late 1800s, but the majority are from the early 20th century. I spotted quite a number of woodmen of the world headstones, which are quite common in this area. There may be some notable names interred here, but I did not spot any. There are a handful of graves that have been visited in the last few months, but it's quite clear that many have long since been forgotten. I did spot a few graves from the early 2000s up to 2019, but nothing from the last year or two. Plenty of photos included to peak your interest.

Though it is next to the road it still sits on private property. If you try to go past the gate on the property you will set off an alarm. There does not appear to be any new graves nor a lot of room for new residents either.

This is still an active cemetery with plenty of room for more decedents and the most recent graves are from 2022. The cemetery is easily accessed and has a dirt lane that circles the cemetery. It occupies roughly about 4 acres and most of the burials have taken place in the last 50 years. There are quite a number of service members buried here, but I did not find any WWI vets. The grounds, the trees and the graves themselves have been well cared for over the years. The photos included in this review may persuade you to make this your forever home.

It is surrounded on all sides by new apartments and businesses and a car dealership. Fortunately a landscaping company has been overseeing the conditions and there are many old growth live oaks providing much shade. There is a short driveway on which to park on, but no road running through it and it is surrounded by a 4 foot perimeter fence. The cemetery is about an acre, perhaps larger in size. The majority of the graves found here date from the late 1800s and the newest ones I could find was a WW1 sevice member buried here in 1975. There was also another WWII service member buried here in 1993 whose picture is included in this review. Some of these gravemarkers actually tell some interesting stories as are pictured below in the review. There are freed slaves and American native Indians buried here. And like a lot of cemeteries from this time period, there are several infants and young children found interred here. Boatright is a recognizable historicle name found here and more Boatrights can be found at the Oak Grove cemetery 5 miles away on Spicewood Springs Rd. There is a small rocky memorial wall which is dedicated to all the lost and unidentifiable graves. Judging by the lack of any burials past the 1990s, I think it's safe to assume this is no longer an active cemetery. If you enjoy walking through old cemeteries, this landmark should be added to your list.

This cemetery is located on a side road just a stones throw away from RM - 620. What's really…read moreunique about this cemetery is that all the graves look as though they were "do it yourself" projects. These plots are well carved out on the sloping limestone hillside. Many of the gravesites have used the natural materials of the Hill country and embellished them with some personal items. This is still an active cemetery with many recent graves, however, I did not spot any markers from the 1800s. For the most part, the cemetery is well manicured and taken care of, and even has a paved road, running through it from the front gate to the rear gate. The graves and family plots are randomly arranged according to the topography of the hillside. Access to the property is simple with just an unlocked gate and a low perimeter wall. Many of the decedents here may well be associated with the Whitestone church just 100 feet away. There is also a recently built columbarium for those who wish to store their ashes here. Normally, this would be a nice quiet place in the country, but that's not the case with the noisy traffic on 620. I did not spot any Texas historical sign nor any information on making this your forever home. This is most likely a private cemetery, not a city one and I even spotted a grave where someone had their dog buried next to them. Informative photos below.
