There are many sandstone markers with no names or
dates in this cemetery. I have listed others in this cemetery whom I
am sure are related to the Harmon Smelser family. The cemetery is
not very large.

Abner GREGG |
1845 |
Pioneer of Texas, Killed
by Indians, aged 72 years. |
NOTE:
Abner GREGG is a descendant of the Gregg family who married into the
Smelser family in Knox Co, TN and these families later moved together to
Missouri, then to Texas. Very likely, he is an uncle to
Harmon. This most likely means the Smelser / Gregg families arrived
in Texas ca1845. |
