"Pleasant Grove Cemetery. I have many, many relatives in this cemetery including my half-brother, my grandparents, many aunts and uncles, and my great-grandparents, Famin Emanis and Martha (Mollie) Elizabeth Murray Emanis. I love walking this cemetery. It is also probable that Mollie's father and grandfather are buried here. I love to speculate about exactly where my great-great grandfather (Archibald Murray) and great-great- great grandfather (Alexander Murray) may be buried. Alexander Murray was a Baptist preacher and performed the dedication at the church next to the cemetery when it first opened. He also preached at Old North Nacogdoches."

"I also love this cemetery because Greg Grant found our two rescue dogs here!"
