�I
think the cemetery you are referring to is located on FM979 and is right before
you get to the brazos river bridge if you are traveling from Calvert. My dad was
taking care of the cemetery until he was no longer able. Cattle are constantly
grazing in the cemetery. It is very difficult to find from the road, there are
no markers or indicators that help identify it as a cemetery. I have family
members buried there.

Indian Burial Ground
Volunteer Tammie Hill has heard rumors of, but has never personally seen, the
Indian Burial Grounds. If the information she has heard is correct, this cemetery
would be located to the left of Hwy 6 when going from Hearne towards Calvert.
This Indian Burial Ground is not to be confused with the Red Hill-Saint Luke-Moody
African American Cemetery that is adjacent to the cemetery road. According to
Tammie, "Start by entering the
Red Hill-Saint Luke-
Moody Cemetery. Go through the fence at the back left-hand side of this
cemetery. Proceed through the trees and woods towards the Little Brazos River for
about one mile. When you reach a hill or knoll, stop. From there, look down. The
valley area below is the Indian Burial Grounds site. There are no headstones, but
close attention to detail on the ground in this valley will reveal arrowheads, broken
pottery pieces, etc. This burial site is one-half mile from the banks of the Little
Brazos River. Supposedly the site has a spooky atmosphere." (see a map on this page)

Unknown #5
Long-time New Baden resident Inez Sweatt (Mrs. William) Ainsworth stated in Sept 2002
that she had heard there may be some graves between New Baden and Camp Creek alongside
Pfistner Road. The general location of this would be close to 31d 01m 11s N / 96d 23m 29s W.
It would be on the left (when heading from New Baden towards Camp Creek), just after the last

Camp Creek. A metal gate marks the entrance to the land where these burials may be located.

who used to live near this area. Her children would play here or nearby. As they played in the dirt,
they found hair from the men who were POWs buried in a cemetery there."
