Reed Cemetery

This is located on the PRIVATE FARM of Anton Rejcek off of County Line
Road and Dry Branch Road between West and Gholson.  In recent years
vandals have wreaked havoc on this cemetery and only a few stones
remain.  The Rejcek's provided what information they had and we took
photographs of the area.  There are several stones that appear to be
where burials were, but no names are indicated on these, they could be
slaves. It is also possible that other family members are buried here as
the property owners recall there being several more stones. It has been
reported as the Old Green Cemetery, but this is not believed to be
accurate, as Prairie Grove Cemetery (just up FM 933) is formerly Old
Gruene Cemetery. Members of the family buried here had land of both the
McLennan and Hill County sides of this farm.  The old Sulak Cotton Gin
was just down the street, but no known members of the Sulak family are
buried on this farm.
