Brewster County, Texas
Elm Grove Cemetery
I wish to thank Mary Bell Lockhart and the Elm
Grove Cemetery Association for this updated list of interments for
Block 1-A. Their hard work is appreciated. Thanks so much
to Mary Bell Lockhart for the pictures of the headstones and the
information she furnished for the individuals of Elm Grove
Cemetery. Historic Alpine has a new project to identify the
Brewster County Pioneers--people who were here as adults before
1920. A column has been added "Historic Alpine" to
identify these people. Updated August 2008.
