As the final resting places of those whose earthly journey has ended, they are also repositories of valuable cultural history. The pioneer cemeteries-those from the 19th century-provide a wealth of information on the people who settled Texas during its years as a Republic (1836-1845), and after it became the 28th state in 1845.
