 Welcome to Walker Co., TX.  My name is Cheryl and am the CC for Walker Co., TX. I am a native Texan, born in Houston, Harris Co., TX and living in Leon Co., TX
This site is undergoing some changes so please be patient with me.  If something is not here that was before, let me know and I will get it back up as soon as I possibly can.

Walker County, Texas was organized 6 Aug 1846 by an act of the State of Texas Legislature.  The area was originally named for Robert J. Walker of Mississippi, who introduced into the United States Congress the resolution for the annexation of Texas; because he was a Unionist during the Civil War, however, in 1863 the state legislature changed the honoree to Samuel H. Walker

Attention  The Mustang Cemetery Board is setting up a work party for Mustang Cemetery for March 24, 2012 from 10:00 to 2:00 o'clock. We need help, as you know a tree fell in the back of the cemetery and cause lots of damage to the cemetery and fence. The new board has put together a new set of rules for the cemetery. One of the new rules is putting together two work party’s a year. The last time a work party was set for the cemetery was about 15 years ago. PER Donald Williams.
We are setting up a meeting in April for all. The meeting will be at Mustang Cemetery Bedias, Texas. Please come and meet your new board members.
Hope to see you there at the work party.
Thank you,
President, Dennis Morris
