Name from BP 2000 #162 With the following statement, i am starting to belive that William is from a different line? Posted by Elizabeth Lopez on July 01, 1999 at 10:56:15: In Reply to: Oak Cliff Cemetery posted by Alan McCulley on June 29, 1999 at 16:19:12: Alan -- Following is text taken from some information provided to us by Mrs. Frances James, who is the tour guide for our cemetery tours. Hope it helps! << Old Oak Cliff also Beatty Cemetery The land for the original portion of this large cemetery was donated by William S. Beatty (1812-1847) in 1846. William gave the 10 acres after his brother Josiah (1817-18?? ) had died and was already buried here. The deed states that "the remains of my beloved brother may not be disturbed or the land in which he lies ploughed." This deed also stated that the burial ground should not be subject to no one sect but shall forever remain open to all. A newspaper account in 1935 mentioned that Josiah's grave was in a corner of the ten acre tract by a pecan tree. The tree has died and had been removed in 1915. There is a two acre section toward the back that is known as the colored section. Until a few years ago there was a fence between the two sites, but currently the entire area has been leveled and is maintained in the same manner. Interestingly enough are the trustees named in this deed, Samuel Sloan (involved in the Lisbon cemetery later on), Leven and Aaron Overton (who also had cemeteries on their land just south of here) and William H. Hord (who owned much land in the vicinity). Hord and his family are buried here after being removed from the family cemetery originally established on their own land. The first marked grave is that of Martha A. Wright, who was only two months old when she died in 1843. The mother, Sarah Elizabeth, died in 1855 and in 1879, Louisa Amanda Wright a relative was killed in a tornado. There is one section known as Stranger's Rest for unknown people who died in the area. In this spot of Dallas County are hundreds of settlers, and their families. Still living are descendants who know stories of who these settlers were, where they came from, and what they did. The cemetery association is responsible for the maintenance of the site and David Eisenlohr keeps the accurate records. The Dallas County Genealogical Association recently inventoried the site and it is understood it is on micro-fisch at the downtown library. >> Elizabeth Lopez Public Relations/Programs Manager [Abraham.FTW] I have William D.
