Status: Located

Plum Grove Cemetery, Plum, Fayette, Texas, United States of America

Notes: Transcribed by Paul W. Smith

The entire plot is 4 acres, the burials are all to the right of the granite entrance marker. Mr. T.H. Johnson did a complete survey of this site in 1975 and it is on file in the archives. Johnson's report states: The Second Plum Grove Baptist Church came into existence in 1869, when the members of the old (First) Plum Grove Baptist Church (near West Point, TX) united with a newly formed Baptist Church of Christ at Pleasant Retreat. The site chosen for the new church was approx. 3/4 mile NE of the town of Plum. Construction of the church house was completed in early 1870. By 1900 the membership had declined and the church disbanded.
