I have been accumulating data on families of those buried in the Routh Cemetery. The cemetery received a Texas Historical Marker in 1998, and it was dedicated 11 Apr 1999 in a ceremony by the Routh Cemeteries Association, which was formed last year. I am the president of the association, and have photos of all tombstones as well as keys to the locked gat if there is anyone that would like access.
