Lewis Family Cemetery
Located in a privately owned field in the northern part Henderson County, Texas


This is the final resting place of my great-grandfather, James David Lewis (1844-1906) and some of his children and grandchildren. It is referred to as "The Old Home Place". This is probably part of the land James David inherited from his father, James Jefferson Lewis (abt 1824-1871).

Following is a list of those that I know are buried here. Click on the name to view a photo of their tombstone.
