High Prairie Cemetery
To preserve the history of old country cemeteries from being lost

Texas Wendish Heritage

These directions were taken in Feb. 1980,
so they may not be completely accurate as of today, 4/25/2022.
Take FM 141 from Giddings for 10.9 miles, turn
left on CR 122 for on 1.8 miles to cemetery right.
Mr. Joe Beaman gave 2 acres of land, 1 for school
and 1 for cemetery. The school was established in 1909,
different denomations of church services were also held in the school
building. The school was later moved to the highway and this acre
reverted back to the family. The school was located west of the
cemetery under a large oak tree, now an oil field road.
This list is NOT near complete!!!! yes I need
