In the 1950's, the construction of the Whitney Dam and Lake created the need for this cemetery, for the reinterment of over 1260 graves from six historic cemeteries in Hill and Bosque counties. Before Lake Whitney inundated these pioneer cemeteries, all of the gravesites and monuments were moved here and placed on nearly 24 acres of land purchased for the Brazos Valley graves. The Whitney Memorial Park Cemetery is clearly marked with six different section signs: Schuler I and Schuler II, Walling Bend, Captain Wilson, Towash and DeGraffenreid section, which was the largest of the six cemeteries moved with 685 graves. This cemetery is located on Highway 22, about 0.3 miles east of FM 933 in Whitney, Hill County, Texas.
