TX Submitted by Jerry and Mary Hicks jhicks@fivearea.com Bula Cemetery - Travel 13 miles south of Muleshoe on Texas highway 214 to Needmore, then 4 miles east on Texas highway 298 to Circle Back, then turn south on highway FM 3397. The cemetery is about 7 ½ miles south of Circle Back and is located on the east side of the road. From "The Tales and Trails of Bailey County": The Bula Cemetery was set up in late 1929. It was used for a few years, then it fell into disuse with a very unkept appearance. About 1976, a group of concerned citizens banded together into a cemetery association, and began the work of restoration. Since restoration work was started, a new fence has been constructed, the lots surveyed and marked off on a plat made by Chester Setliff, trees have been planted and it is now kept mowed, with a much more pleasing appearance. The location of the graves have never been established, but by searching records and by private records, the names of the 'above' persons are listed as being buried in the Bula Cemetery. A permanent marker has been erected with the names of all those buried in the Bula Cemetery on it. In 1988, the Cemtery Association was still organized, with Betty Harlan as President, and Faye Jones as Secretary. The Association can be reached by mail at Bula, Texas 79320. The cemetery is open to any who would wish to use it. The lots are free, but anyone buried there must have a permanent marker so that no more graves will be lost in the future.
