Brazos Bottom Baptist Church Cemetery

Brazos Bottom Baptist Church Cemetery

Snookbr/Burleson County, Texasbr/30 32.228' N 96 31.543' Wbr/Directions: Start at the intersection of FM-2039 and CR-254. Go .5 miles to end of the road.br/ br/Historical Marker: Also known as the Old Tunis Cemetery, this burial ground originally served a pioneer area of the fertile Brazos valley. Graves date from the 1840s, and John and Sarah Wright Echols formally set aside land in 1867 for this graveyard and a Baptist Church, which disbanded in 1883. The headstones preserve the names of farmers, veterans, families and pioneers, including Judge John Gregg (1798-1848), a Texas War for Independence veteran, planter and Milam County justice. A cemetery association maintains the site, preserving the rich history of the valley.
