Cedar Hill Burial Park
Mexia, Limestone County, Texas

Lat: 31° 40' 51"N, Lon: 96° 30' 38"W

Contributed by Bruce Jordan, Sep 30, 2004 [bjordan@glade.net]. Total records = 44.

This cemetery is one mile west of Mexia on Hwy 84, on north side of highway, next to and west of the Hancock Cemetery. There is just a fence separating them.

This is a newer cemetery which started in the late 1980's and is primarily for African Americans. It is still accepting burials.

These records were compiled in the Spring of 2004, when I walked and read this cemetery. This includes all existing headstones.
