LETULLE
CEMETERY


 



 

This cemetery is located on private property near Markham. Thomas B. LeTulle had the cemetery surveyed and intended it to be used by the family and for a public burial ground. Only family members and ranch workers are buried there. The cemetery was never used for public burials. Before his death, Mr. LeTulle commissioned a life-size bronze statue of himself sitting on his mule. Behind the mule two bronze dogs crouch as if waiting for their next command.
