History
6
This burial ground originally served the family of the Rev. Ellison Armistead Daniel, Sr. and pioneer settlers of southwest Dallas County. Daniel, who brought his family here in 1852, was a part-time Baptist minister who also farmed and ranched this land. The cemetery was first used in 1853 for the interment of his daughter-in-law Fannie P. Daniel. The earliest marked grave is that of Daniel's son-in-law William S. Langley. Other graves include those of Daniel family members who figured prominently in the development of Duncanville.
