NEEDVILLE METHODIST CHURCH CEMETERY
Located on land purchased by The Needville German Methodist Church from 
the State of Texas in 1896. This small cemetery began in 1903 when the 
infant son of the church's pastor William Sievers and his wife Alma was 
buried near the church building.
By 1905 children of the Busch and Kielman families also were buried here 
and the Zich family began burying relatives in the graveyard in 1907.
Adjacent to the Needville Public Cemetery, this plot has historically 
been used by members of the Methodist Church, which moved to the town 
of Needville in 1927. (Texas Historical Marker) Funded by the estate 
of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Bacica 1992.
