Roberts Cemetery (Baugh Cemetery)

 

This Cemetery is located in Back of the large Pecan orchard about seven miles north of Brownwood, Brown County, Texas on FM 2125. Enter driveway from 2125 and keep right as you approach the house pass the barns and workshops continue right along the earthen bank turn left at the end of the bank and follow the road through the trees you will see the cemetery on your right upon a small hill. When I first started visiting this cemetery it was in very bad shape  The folks at the house were very helpful in directing me the right way.  The list below is from the Brown County Court House Records. It was done in 1975 By Ethel Baugh Franke and Hazel Wetzel

In the late 1990,s Homer Purcell cleaned the cemetery up and reset the stones that had fallen down and has since tried to keep it mowed We are working at this time 2002 to get enough money and labor together to rebuild the fence and perhaps make a marked entrance. It is in pretty rough shape but so much better than it was.
