Cedron Cemetery

Cedron Cemetery, Bosque County, Texas Allen Bend, Texas

Latitude: 315716N Longitude: 0972749W (closer to Steiner)
Photo donated by Christine NEAL. Bosque County Road #1135 or Hwy. 56, a few miles from Hwy. 22, east of Kopperl.

This information was donated by Betty WINGO - from sign on the road "Settlement of Northeastern Bosque County began in the 1850s, as people traveling west through the area were attracted to the fertile lands along Cedron Creek. Among the first community projects of the new neighbors was the construction of a school building, a one - room structure. It was also used for church & social gatherings. The original schoolhouse was replaced in the 1930s by a newer structure." Like its predecessor, it also served as a church & community center. The school was consolidated with other area schools in 1938 & the building later was dismantled.

These directions by Teresa K. PARRISH - Take Hwy. 22 between Meridian and Whitney Dam. Turn North on FM 56, go about 6 miles past entrance to Cedar Shores and across Cedron Creek. Take the 1st left hand gravel road, about 1 miles. Cemetery is on the left inside a pasture. It is posted but cemetery visitors are welcome.

*There is a metal temporary marker between the graves of Keziah & Margaret, & I (Betty WINGO) am told that Lula Ward WAGNER is buried there, but there is no gravestone. She was the daughter of G.T.W & M.E WARD & the wife of William A. WAGNER born 1881, died 24 Feb 1911.
In a corner of the cemetery, off by itself, is a rock that, according to legend, marks the location of the grave of "Indian Joe". Legend has it that, in the late 1800's, a wounded indian brave was found. Some of the women settlers tried to nurse him back to health but he died. They buried him in a corner with only a large rock for a marker, never learning his true name. Donated by LaDawn GARLAND
