Bastrop County Cemetery Links

Names and inscriptions from Cemeteries in Bastrop and the surrounding area. Bastrop County was split up and portioned off, so some graveyards may now be located in other counties (some are included here). An n index of names and cemetery locations of a survey conducted in the 1950's can be seen at the Bastrop Library.  In addition, in the 1980's members of Bastrop Historical Society, resurveyed/surveyed various cemeteries in the county, with their work being donated to the Bastrop Library, who bound the lists into several book volumes and are stored in the reference section. I resurveyed/surveyed a huge number of cemeteries in the 1990s, as reflected in the below pages. With the growth in Bastrop County, cemeteries are still being discovered that had been lost.  Some of the surveys below are complete while others are partial surveys with the information coming from researchers, newspaper articles, undertaker records, death records, etc.  All cemetery inscriptions have been added to www.findagrave.com which is updated frequently.
