In Section A4 there are apparently only three rows of graves. Starting at the back of the section and coming forward to Loop 165 there are two unknown markers just north of the big cedar tree.

In the next row: William L. Turner (1890-1946) WWI, Beulah L. Surber (1909-2007), William E. Surber (1906-1977), T.D. (Bud) Evans (1908-1975), Maudie May Brackeen (1919-1997), George W. Brackeen (1920-1976), Louie Schertz (1876-1964), Mata Schertz (1880-1963), Charlie Schertz (1880-1946).

In the front row: Pauline Cravatt (1930-2004), Winnie Muriel Wagner (1907-2001), Albert Paul Wagner (1898-1993), Janice O. Wagner (1937-2005), Willie Boon (1870-1903), Florence Annie Boon (1859-1894).

In Section A3 there also appears to be only 3 rows. On the back row: Phyllis Diana Kemp (nee Brown) (1952-1998), Beulah E. Wagner (1913-1993), Thomas W. Wagner (1907-1981), Frieda Wagner (1904-1947), Ovie Wagner (1902-1997), Frances E. Wagner (1917-1988), Lester J. Wagner (1896-1968).

Middle row: Melba Wagner (1928-2006), Lee Roy Wagner (1924-2004), Lemmal “Lem” F. Wagner (1891-1965), Lou Wagner (1867-1949), James H. Wagner (1867-1927), Willie Russell Wagner (1905-1916), Jesse Frances Wagner (1889-1893) shares a tombstone with Sula Delese Wagner (1895-1896).

Front row: Angela Marie Coleman (Infant 1988), Fred G. Williams (1883-1973), Wilhelmene Armke (1855-1901), Emil H. Armke (1880-1918), Augusta Armke Jones (1882-1979), Ernst Greichen (1846-1910), Bertha Lee Holybee (1912-1986).

There are a couple of corrections to make in 4 of Who’s Who in the Blanco Cemetery. Thank you for helping us have accurate information. In Section 8, John G. Neill should read John C. Neill. About two rows forward there is a hand-made tombstone with no date that should read Annie Jones instead of Angie Jones. Yalene Hobbs is researching Ms. Annie Jones. If you have any information, would you please pass it on to her?

If you have stories or family connections that you would like to place in a public file, please send them to: Gail Moore McClellan, Vice President, Cemetery Committee, P.O. Box 640, Blanco, TX 78606 or gail_mcclellan@yahoo.com.
