Mt Carmel Cemetery Black Section

Photo Additions and Corrections by Bobby Bennett

Wolfe City, Hunt Co. Cemeteries of TX

Transcribed for John W. Duncan by Gena Forsyth & Debbie Evans.  

From the intersection of Hwy. 34 and Hwy 11 at Wolfe City, Hunt Co., Texas, travel east on Hwy. 11 for 0.5 mile.  Turn south onto Hunt Co. Road 4814.  Follow the winding road for 0.8 mile.  Mt. Carmel Cemetery is on the hill.

           Jan 03 2007.... I would like for you to make a correction concerning  my  Grandfather, Grigsby B. Sims.  The error can be found in the records, Cemeteries of Hunt County TX, Mount (MT) Carmel Cemetery, Wolfe City found in the Black section.  My Grandfather's actual birth date was August 15, 1897 and he died October 6, 1968.  He was interned at the fore mentioned cemetery.  Your entry has him listed at an erroneous birth and death with comments from people that really were not his parents.   (I have included this information from  Clyde Lee and will leave it to the researcher as to the possibilities..    Gloria)
