| Directions to Cemeteries in Brown County |

One of the responsibilities of the Brown County Historical Commission is to keep up with all the cemeteries in the county, some 51 of them.  With the help of the Brown County Historical Society, they inventory and record who is in the cemeteries, encourage Historical Texas Cemetery markers be applied for and placed in the cemetery.  Four cemeteries in Brown County are now designed as Historical Texas Cemeteries.  They are:  Eureka Cemetery, Staley Cemetery, Windham Cemetery and Zephyr Cemetery.

Here is a link to the Pecan Valley Genealogical Society website that lists burials in some cemeteries.
