SIMPSONVILLE CEMETERY
Simpsonville Cemetery is located on HWY 556 about 11 miles SW of Pittsburg, Tx in the very small town of Simpsonville, also known as Thomas. The cemetery is located directly behind Simpsonville Baptist Church and Simpsonville Church of Christ. The cemetery is very well maintained and fenced. The new maintenance people have taken great pains with the cemetery including digging up some sunken stones. The census was started on the north side and was done in sections from front to back as family groupings tend to be in groups rather than in straight rows. Obvious family groups are censused together if they were buried nearby. There is one section which contains quite a few pink marker looking stones.
