Teague / Williamson and Relations

Cemetery Survey by Bruce and Gene Teague

This is not a complete survey, but includes those that are related or suspected relations. They are not in the order of arrangement in the cemetery, but I tried to line up by b/d for ease of family association. The cemeteries are in order of the route we took. If the names were on the same stone, I listed them together-no lines between. I also included last names even if the stone did not for individuals. Items in parenthesis are my notes.

On Hwy 160 half way between Taylor and Magnolia. Was looking for Isham Caswell, John R's father in Barges Chapel Cemetery, but never found it. Macedonia appears to be where I thought Barges was supposed to be. Barges still could be another more hidden place nearby.
