The following Lists divide the Known Burial Places within Kaufman & Rockwall Counties into groups according to the earliest transcribed burial date at each particular site. This List should not be considered exacting, as any site could have persons who were buried at any of the locales (in unmarked graves) at dates earlier than the ones taken from the tombstone transcriptions.
