This new listing was completed in the fall of 2003. The earlier work of Arlene and Fred Tolman in 1976, was used as a reference while doing this new cemetery survey. Thanks to Maxine Powell who furnished some full names and complete dates of birth & death from the records in her recent publication "Grimes Funeral Chapels 1930-1959". An asterisk (*) denotes those whose information came from City of Kerrville burial records of the early '40's. Some of these had only the date of death written on the record. A marker does not exist for these burials. Comments & corrections by family members are always welcome.
