Trying to find the burial place for a Rolla Sam Hope, who died Nov. 14, 1960. No
burial place is listed, but family states the service was in Conroe and burial
in Cut n Shoot Texas. His death certificate has him listed as Raleigh S. Hope.
Could you help me with a lookup please?
Found Four Records in MCG&HS books:
Unmarked graves of Montgomery County, p 96:
Cockerham Branch Marland Funeral Home
MC Vol. 1 1960-1968 p135 & 136
Montgomery County Cemetery Book Vol. III,
Conroe Memorial Park, p 41
So there must have been a marker at some point if it was
transcribed in the cemetery book. jhs

I (jhs) believe that 1887 date on the death
certificate is a transcription error where they transposed the 8 and 7 on the
death certificate.
Raleigh aka Rolla
Sam Hope was buried in the cemetery and now know where.
So you Decide? When was he born?
1875, 1878, or 1887?
