people in School Precinct No. 62, was mentioned in many obituaries with
the words, "the funeral will be from the family residence to the
cemetery." The residences were on the streets of the same names that
surround the cemetery. We can picture grieving families walking along
with a horse drawn hearse to the burial site.
The Lagow Cemetery Association was in existence until the 1970s with
members donating for the upkeep. In 1977 Mildred Bradford's accounting
of expenses and members paying dues, included notations of many members'
deaths. A handwritten note tells the story of many neglected and
forgotten cemeteries, "All old ones about gone, some grandchildren
paying." The last donation noted was in 1978 and in 1982 the
Association's bank account was closed.
In 2006 Kody Followwill organized the cleaning and a survey of the 33
stones that remained for his Boy Scout, Eagle Badge. A WFAA.com
article, dated August 15, 2009, says that 50 volunteers from Dallas
Leadership Foundation cleaned the Cemetery.
