I'm not sure
where Otis, Earl and Jack V. Miller, their other children, are
buried. Eliza Anna Casey Miller was my maternal grandmother's aunt.
Family history said they were buried there, but I had not been able
to find any proof until I pulled up their death records. |

Subject: Unmarked graves in Oakwood Cemetery
I know of two unmarked graves in this
cemetery. In addition to my grandmother,
Mary Magdalene
Henderson,
who is buried next to the fence paralleling Airport Rd is her son,
Willard Henderson.
My uncle Willard died about 1938 or 1939 from an automobile accident in
Conroe. Willard is not next to her, but in the same area. As a child
growing up in Conroe, I knew about where both of these graves were. Now
I can't find them. Next to my grandfather,
Elmer Brown Henderson,
is his brother, Henry Smith
Henderson, Jr.
known as Uncle
Jack. They are buried with Uncle Jack nearest the driveway and Elmer
next to him in Section 2, Plot 65. These two graves are the only ones
buried in the family plot. Uncle Jack was the father-in-law of TX Ranger
Clint Peoples. Some of my family would like to locate my grandmother and
uncle's graves as we plan to mark them. Any help would be appreciated.

Henry Smith Henderson, Jr., always called "Jack", buried

TX.

was living when she died.
I have her obituary, showing three children. Ilene who married a Martin and
two son's listed as Camp and Derl in the article.
