Schumann Family Cemetery

LEDBETTER, FAYETTE COUNTY, TEXAS

300712N 964845W





This small, fenced cemetery is located three miles west of Ledbetter on Bell Settlement Road, a rough, gravel road. Outside the cemetery fence is a very old wooden cross with four headstones flush to the ground. Nothing is legible on the wooden cross and there are no dates on the headstones, just the name Weid.

The Schumann Family Cemetery was visited and inventoried on February 16, 2002 by Robert and Stephanie Warren and Lynn and Wayne Britt. They found markers for thirteen graves. Since then six small wooden crosses have been erected in the cemetery, marking the graves of Anije Schumann, several unidentified Schumann children and a Korb child.
