Zuehl Cemetery
Sent by Jane Jahns Rice - 07/20/2009
From IH 10 West take the Zuehl Road exit, go about .2 mile, then left on Caffrey Road (private) another .2 mile.
There is a sign for that and 2 other cemeteries on the same road (Victor Garza Memorial Park and Valdez Cemetery).
The Zuehl Family Cemetery was established by
Heinrich (Wilhelm) Zuehl. The following info was obtained from the
Zuehl Family History edited by Joyce Zaiontz in 1995:
"Just before Wilhelm Zuehl passed away in 1912,
he laid aside a good-size plot of land for the Zuehl Family Cemetery.
He also bought the fence that at one time surrounded the Seguin
Courthouse. He held a 'putting up the fence day' with everyone who
could, to come and land a hand. As usual, Wilhelm furnished plenty of
food and drink for the occasion and the job was done in short order."
