Cox Cemetery is located on FM 3371. From Groesbeck, go South on FM 937 about 12 miles. When you come to FM 3371, take a left. The Cemetery is on the left about 1/4 mile down the road.
Cox Cemetery is maintained by Union-Cox Cemetery Association. You can contact Donna Hastings Ayres at 254-729-8522 for info. This Cemetery is accepting burials. This is a complete recording of this Cemetery as of 7-22-03. I compiled this survey from tombstones. There are about 100 graves marked with rocks, stones or upright cement markers with no info on them. In 2002, I submitted my work to the Texas Historical Commission. Cox Cemetery is now a Texas Historical Cemetery. I am very proud of this.
