Clark Cemetery
There are three cemeteries here.Clark Cemetery is African-American and was moved to the present location by The Corps of Engineers in 1953 to create more area for the new lake that was constructed. No history available about the beginning of the cemetery.
From Denton, take US 380 East to FR 720; go South on FR 720 to Lloyd Road (gravel road 1.4 miles from US 380); turn East on Lloyd Road and follow road 1.5 miles; road will curve to the South; the cemetery is on the right side of the road. Harrington Cemetery is at the front SE corner; Cassady Cemetery is at the back SW corner; Clark Cemetery is in the NW corner; front NE corner has no burials.
The Corps of Engineers moved 81 graves to the new location. Of the 81 graves moved only 29 names were available.
Special thanks to Bruce J. Zak & Luisa Browning for scanning the abandoned cemeteries.
