Cox Cemetery
Old Union Community, Limestone County, Texas

Lat: 31° 24' 31"N, Lon: 96° 25' 15"W

Contributed by Bruce Jordan, Aug 10, 2003 [bjordan@glade.net]. Total records = 153.

From Groesbeck, go south on FM 937, turn left/east on FM 3371. The cemetery is about .5 miles on the left and is visible from the road.

The land for the Cox Cemetery was donated by Obediah Cox, a Civil War veteran. His wife, Angeline Glover, was the first marked grave in 1870. The cemetery is well kept and is still accepting new burials.

Linda Jordan and I read this cemetery on Jul 30, 2003, which includes all existing headstones.

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
