Humble Cemetery

History
4
Humble Cemetery is believed to be the town of Humble's oldest cemetery. The earliest documented burial is that of Joseph Dunman (1867-1879). Jane Elizabeth Humble, wife of the community's founder, Pleasant Humble, is also believed to be buried here in an unmarked grave. The first legal record of the cemetery appears in a deed transferring the cemetery property from Jonas Altmont to trustees in 1914. Civil War veteran Houston Young and several World War I veterans are also interred here. The cemetery reflects Humble's pioneer heritage.
