San Saba Cemeteries

Notes from Patricia Foster, a member of the San Saba Historical Commission

Adams: The 2nd Adams Cemetery is off of Hwy. 190, toward Lometa, this would be East, out of San Saba Town...on dirt road just before going out of San Saba County.  Not many graves here.

Ballard ...on old Ballard Place ...only one stone with a name on it.
Barnett.. on old Davidson place.. A small Mexican cemetery next to it with a few stones.  This cemetery is in a pasture, and I do not know if it can still be found, it was not kept up... information from 1970 reading

Chaney Graves.....The graves are on the old Pool place, and may not be found again.  About 3 or 4 graves.  Stones missing or have been destroyed.... only one partly legible....        

Crawford.. also known as Whitehurst ......8 miles East of San Saba on Brown's Branch..."

Gray Cemetery is completely up to date.  Its located East of Cherokee... this is my husbands family.

Hanna Cemetery is now called Cherokee City Cemetery....

Hillcrest.... old cemetery on southside of San Saba town.... still in use.  The Hwy. department to put up signs last year.....still in use.

Latham or Lathum... Called Latham, it is back of the old Jack Lathum home, with Lathums buried in it.  I believe some family members changed the spelling.

The Old Pantotoc Cemetery is in Mason Co.,  but a lot of folks from the town of Pontotoc, which is in San Saba, are buried there.

Rough Creek also known as Smelser ....  It  is usually referred to as Old Smelser at  Rough Creek. 

Sides graves.... a few miles south and east of the #2 Adams site two graves ...  Sides surname.
