All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm **************************************************** Dilworth Cemetery Orange Grove, Jim Wells County, Texas This cemetery is located at the corner of County Rd 226 and FM-624, West of Orange Grove, near Midway. There is a family plot near FM-624 that can be seen from the highway. Other burials are further back from the road, and there are at least 3 headstones that are somewhat scattered from the rest. There are 2 entries, one off FM-624 and the other off CR-226. There are no signs. I'm trying to find out more information about this cemetery. Please contact me with any corrections and/or additions.
