Martin Family Cemetery |
Shelby County Texas
Information provided by Pat Jones July 27, 2000
The cemetery is locate off Highway 7 East and FM road 2608 on private property. It is in need of care, it is somewhat abandoned. In 1997 a Martin reunion was held at the American Legion Hall in Center. The host of the reunion was D.W. Martin. At that time a collection was collected for the purchase of a fence. There are three small graves that have no dates only some worn toys which were probably left by cleaning of the site.
