Historical Marker: Joseph and Elizabeth Salmon and their children moved
to the Republic of Texas in 1839. They settled in this area in
1854. When their 15-year-old son, Albert, died in 1858, he was
buried at his favorite campsite in a grove of oak trees on the
family land. Albert's brother, Joseph Salmon, Jr., deeded the
acre of land surrounding the grave site for use as a community
cemetery in 1876. Additional land acquisitions over the years
have increased the size of the cemetery. The diverse styles of
gravestones found here serve as reflections of the area's pioneer
heritage. (1991)
