Mr. Cox provided wise Counsel, a place to meet, storage space and furniture during the beginning years of the Fredericksburg Genealogical Society. The History of Greenwood Cemetery The Greenwood Cemetery Association was incorporated on September 17, 1894. The incorporators were A. W. Moursund, A. O. Cooley, both lawyers, Alfred van der Stucken, L. Hagen and Louis Priess, prominent local businessmen. The Association was formed because the City Cemetery was filling up and the land adjacent to it was a cotton field that's value was to much for purchase as cemetery space. The Association purchased 15 acres from Henry Kordzik Sr. The tract was located on the then outskirts of the city, now on North Llano Street. an additional 12.4 acres was purchased from Kurt Eckhardt in 1969. Both tracts of land were heavily wooded and trees have been retained to provide a serene natural setting. At the time that Greenwood Cemetery was founded, The Llano road was only a rough, gravel right-of-way, so in 1912 a plot of land was conveyed to Gillespie County in exchange for the county providing a graded road from town to the cemetery entrance. This plot is used for the burial of indigent and paupers. The first map of the cemetery, dated 1898, shows family plots with room for eight to twelve people. These were later subdivided into quarters. About 1965 the eastern part of the cemetery was replatted into individual burial sites. Not many burials took place in the early years because the area was overgrown with brush and poison ivy but as it was cleared people started purchasing plots, One of the first burials was of Almon O. Cooley, one of the incorporators, he died on September 26, 1899. Hedwig Martin Kordzik, the first child born in the new colony of Fredericksburg is buried in Greenwood. She was born on March 30, 1849 and died on January 6, 1928. Note: This book has an index of maiden (nee) and married (surname) names. It then lists alphabetically the names of the persons buried there with maiden, notes, born, died, wed on, section, lot and plot. I purchased mine at the Verein Kirche.
