Presswood Cemetery Photos
Montgomery County Texas

The cemetery is located behind/close to  the county barn  just off 1485 East in New Caney. Go past the county barn and a small dirt road between two mobile homes. It cannot be seen from road and is very overgrown as of September 24, 2007.

On Sept. 24, 2007, Jane Keppler, Kay Mayer Knee  and Jerry Gay  transcribed and took these photos:


As you can see, no one would ever know
a cemetery is behind this clump of shrubs
 


See how overgrown the cemetery is with
shrubs and weeds
