GPS Coords: 30.6913061, -95.6713350

Along with Ebenezer Baptist Church, this cemetery organized in 1854 on land donated by Jonathan A. and Sarah McGary. The earliest marked grave is that of Annie Bussey Pace, who migrated here from Alabama with family, including her husband, the Rev. Richard pace (d. 1858), who was the first pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church. Although the congregation disbanded and the church reorganized in the West Sandy community, the cemetery continued to be used. Among those buried here are citizens of the Republic of Texas and veterans of conflicts dating to the Civil War. Today, the Ebenezer Memorial Association, incorporated in 1986, continues to care for this burial ground.

Location: 8 miles west of Huntsville on SH 30. 6 miles west of IH 45 and 1 mile east of FM 2550.
