Beaird Cemetery, Dixie Community, Smith County, 
Texas -- NW-29


From Tyler, take Hwy64 west to the intersection 
with CR4134 and turn right (northwest). The cemetery 
is on the right (north) side of the road about 
150 yards from the intersection. This cemetery 
is outside the city limits of Tyler.

No deed establishing the cemetery was ever filed.  
At the time of the earliest recorded burial (1859), 
the land on which the cemetery now sits appears to 
have spanned the property line of Starling R. PRICE 
(north) and Silas GAMMON (south).  Benjamin Bryant 
BEAIRD, for whom the cemetery was eventually named, 
did not acquire the property until the mid 1870s.
