      David Ross Houston Family Cemetery

      I am looking for any maps, photos and/or any confirmation that there are 2 cemeteries on the old Houston Family property. Deed Records show that there were 2 cemeteries on the Houston Family property. I am looking for proof of the Houston Cemetery consisting of a 5 acre square, which source deed states that it is located near the southwest corner of the east half of the southeast quarter of section 21, including right of way to the cemetery from the public road. This cemetery was created by instrument executed on June 11, 1849 and recorded at Deed Book 13, Page 126.

      On this website under cemeteries, I see there is a William Houston Cemetery that lies south of Waterloo Road (CR-14) just east of the Natchez Trace Parkway in Section 15.

      An excerpt from a book states that there were 2 cemeteries on the "Houston Place".
