Clark Cemetery Association

Welcome, Friends

This is the official Clark Cemetery Association site — dedicated to the memory, preservation, and history of our family members interred at Clark Cemetery in Parker County, Texas.

About This Site

A Private Family Cemetery

This site was put together explicitly for our family members because this is a private cemetery of those family members who are all descendants of the pioneers who helped tame and settle Parker County. Its companion site, the Clark Cemetery Association History Site (www.clarkcemeteryhistory.org), makes the memory of ancestors and pioneers of the area vivid through photos, biographical sketches, and stories.

Texas Historic Cemetery

Designated February 16, 2011

Officially Declared Historic

Clark Cemetery was officially declared a historic cemetery in Texas by the Texas Historical Commission (THC) on February 16, 2011, and its Official Dedication from THC was recorded in the same month. The THC and the Clark Cemetery Association, along with members and guests, celebrated its Historic Marker Dedication on October 12, 2013.

You can view a gallery of photos and videos of the Dedication Ceremony and the Clark Cemetery Association Annual Meetings on our photos and videos pages.

In Honor

The Cumming Brothers

Herbert and Bob Cumming gave their lives in World War II in 1943 and 1944 while serving in the U.S. Army Air Corps. They have posthumous memorials on the entrance pillars to Clark Cemetery.
