CRUTCHFIELD CEMETERY

CRUTCHFIELD CEMETERY

This is a Black Cemetery located on private property; in 1988 the property was leased by Emory Knapp, Aubrey, TX. There are two areas where graves are located; a fence separates the two locations. When the cemetery was active (year unknown) there was a building used for school and church in the middle of the two burial areas. Last known burial was for Aunt Anna Townsend between 1948 and 1958. Mr. Emory Knapp attended the burial but wasn't certain of the year of burial.
