Union Hill is a medium sized public cemetery found in rural Southeast Titus County.  James A. Tabb deeded the property to the Methodist Church in 1897 although from examining the gravestones leads to the conclusion that burials were taking place prior to this deed.  The cemetery, then, must have been established prior to the deed.  In 1964 the church established the Union Hill Cemetery Foundation with a full slate of officers to oversee a perpetual care fund.  This has resulted in the cemetery being enclosed in a chain link fence and the grounds are very well kept.  Decoration Day services are held annually.  At these services, a meal is served and a business meeting is held.

Various grave markers with no information can be found throughout the cemetery.  For instance, the cemetery is dominated by at least 299 flat concrete slabs that mark known grave sites.  A petrified tree trunk stands over one grave site, 3 native rocks, a manufactured concrete monument with the glass window broken, an oval topped metal monument with and embossed cross, and 2 unreadable funeral home markers (FHM) mark others.  There are some broken parts of monuments with inscriptions as follows: “Love that blossomed but to die transplanted now above to bloom with God on high”; “Weep not she is not dead but sleepeth”; “-- 12, 1899 Budded on earth to bloom in Heaven.  She is not dead but sleepeth”; and a colored one that reads “infant”.  There are no further identifying information on those markers.
