Titus County, Texas Cemetery Search

Keith Cemetery No. 3 lies on a hilltop a short distance west of the business section of Cookville. The Keith family was very prevalent in the development of the area around the Town of Cookville, and several Keith family members are buried in the Cookville Cemetery. Three Titus County Cemeteries bear their name, with Keith Cemetery No. 3 the most recent of the three. It is a deeded acre of land set aside as a family burial place. It is used sparingly and therefore will last some time into the future. It is well maintained and a locked gate restricts vehicle access to it.
