Old Cliff Cemetery

Haskell County, Texas

 

Thanks to Wanda Ham of the
Haskell County Historical & Genealogical Society
 for submitting this data.

 

This information was taken from the old “Knox County History
Book”.  Some say the cemetery is in Knox County while others believe
it is in Haskell County.   The truth may be that it is both counties
because it is thought the county line runs through the cemetery.

 

In this old cemetery there is a clue to who some of the first settlers in the Cliff community were since they or a member
 of their families are buried here.
