De Leon Cemetery, Comanche County, Texas Located 5 blocks west of downtown De Leon, this cemetery includes over 5,000 identified graves and many unidentified graves. Many heartfelt thanks to the dedicated family and friends who gathered this data in June 2000. The tireless efforts of Fayne and Ruby Pair to get this record accurate and complete will be of great benefit to this community for years to come. Updated 22 April 2008. Submitted by Elayne Pair Gibbons. The cemetery is divided into sections in a simple grid format, beginning with A on the north side proceeding to E on the south. #1 starts on the west side, proceeding to #13 on the east. Section #s are listed at the end of each name, thus ..A1 would be found in the northwest corner of the cemetery, while ..C6 would be near the center. The Veteran’s Memorial Shed is in ..E4. This data may be freely copied and used by any person or their agent, or any library, but may not be sold. Readings here often reflect more data than is
on the stone. GPS coordinates: 320634 N, 983444 W, 1327' elevation On the left, click on the first letter of the surname you are looking for.

"I would not mind doing pictures
for people if they do not get in a big hurry for them. I will be glad to do
them when I am coming to DeLeon or if I have several requests I might make a
trip but cannot do it for just one picture."
