bulletOutside the main area of the cemetery is a smaller fenced area. According to Cloris Webb, (son of S. B. and Amanda) the area contains 2 or 3 unmarked graves of Mexican laborers. The graves date from the early 1900’s.

To get to the cemetery from Cisco take Hwy 206 sw 16 miles. Turn left (south) on FM 569. Go 4 miles to CR 376, turn right. The cemetery is about 1/10 mile west of the intersection.

Land for the cemetery was deeded on March 4, 1899 by Samuel Blackwell Webb and his wife Amanda J. Holder Webb. The 1963 survey was done by their daughter Hettie Webb Lacy, and includes the names of those buried in unmarked graves.

The cemetery is maintained by the Liberty Cemetery Charitable Trust. Questions or donations may be directed to Sylvia Lacy King, Secretary/Treasurer, 1101 CR 142, Cisco, Tx 76437, kingirby@eastland.net
