NOTE:  I only do transcribing and helping people with genealogical research.  I have nothing to do with the cemetery, so if you are looking for information on purchasing plots or rules and regulations of the cemetery, contact the caretaker or a local funeral home.

When heading towards Calvert from the Providence Church on Hwy. 1644, you'll pass a road on the left which leads toward the site of Marvin (a community that existed where this road dead-ends into the railroad tracks).  This is the black road that goes to the left from the "4" in "8.4" on Hwy. 1644.  Further along 1644 is another road on the left, which heads toward the site of Barton (a community that existed where this road crosses the railroad tracks).  This road is just below the bridge.  Past this road, still traveling on 1644 towards Calvert, you'll cross a bridge over the Little Brazos River.  Continue beyond this bridge and up the hill in the road.  On the left is a gate with a road beyond that leads to the Barton Farm Cemetery, which is located near Peters Slough..  According to Volunteer Robert Goff, "Mrs. Minnieola Alford Redmon told me that she has relatives buried in a small cemetery on the Barton Farm."  If you know the name of this cemetery, where it is located, or the names of anyone buried there, please contact one of us.....

UPDATE: 10/26/2022 I, Jane Keppler spoke with Mrs. Minnie Redmon who was born on this farm and lived there until she was 23, she gave more names that she knows is buried here.  She is looking for help to clean up the cemetery, but be aware it is located on private property.   Please contact me, Jane Keppler as Mrs. Minnie does not have email and I will contact her.   Below are more names she believes is buried in this private cemetery.

On October 3, 2024 I met with Minnie and she took me to the cemetery and it was in deporable condition.

She desperately needs help to get it cleaned once again.
