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. Sincerely, Pat Henderson Barnes Willard Henderson, b; 1917 in TX. Died abt 1939, due to involvement with double car-crash located just south of Old Hill trop Bar, Willis, TX. Son of Elmer Brown Henderson, b; 2 Mar 1892, Hunt County, TX, d; 1954, Montgomery County, TX. Son of Mary Magdalene Glover (Gresham) Henderson, b; 5 Sept 1893 in TX, d; 2 Feb 1940 in Montgomery County, TX. Henry Smith Henderson, Jr., b; abt 1887/1888 in MS, d; date unknown. Brother of Elmer Brown Henderson & all four buried in Oakwood Cemetery, Conroe, Montgomery county, TX. Henry Smith Henderson, Jr., always called "Jack", buried right beside Elmer B. Henderson. Should be some kind of marker that just says "Jack". Henry Smith "Jack" Henderson, Jr. was father-in-law to Clinton Thomas Peoples, Texas Ranger, Texas Ranger Hall of Fame, Waco, TX.
Thank you so much for the prompt reply.
Willard Henderson and mother Mary M. Henderson, buried next to fence, East entrance, left side.

Ethel
Anderson, born August 24, 1895 and died March 1980 is buried there and
I would love to find some of her descendents. She taught in the Conroe
school system for many years and moved to Wortham TX about 1971 where she
was living when she died. Also have several Anderson's and Dean's buried in County Line Cemetery. Shirley Swenson
