Cherokee County, Texas

DAUGHERTY CEMETERY

    Daugherty cemetery is located to the South and West of Jacksonville, Texas, off State road 747, just South and west of the Antioch communi­ty on County road 3114. It is by the Tenney Chapel CME church in the Pine Grove community. It consists of a large rectangular area with three fairly distinct divisions.  An older section on the Eastern end that is maintained, A central section that is overgrown and covered by trees, both standing and fallen, briars and brush, and a newer section on the western end that is well maintained.

Rows in the eastern section and the central overgrown section were almost non-existent and were assigned as indicated below.  The eastern section consists exclusively of African American graves, the central wooded section includes both white people and people of African American descent, the upper western newer section consists exclusively of people of African American descent.

    Jacksonville, TX residents Sue Taylor, Tommy Mullinix, Bill Slider and Evelyn Ezell provided some names of their ancestors that are known to be (KTB) buried here, but for whom I found no identifiable markers. 

    This survey was completed in August 1996 by  Ira Gaylon White.
