Old Moulton Cemetery

History
4
Old Moulton Cemetery contains the earliest documented grave of Louisa Lattimer, dated 1842-1857, though local oral tradition holds that there may be older interments. Early settlers Robert H. and Eliza J. McGinty deeded some land for cemetery use. Those interred here include Lavaca County pioneers, former slaves, a large number of children, victims of 19th-century diseases and epidemics, and veterans of the Texas Revolution, the Civil War, World War I, World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. Of the hundreds of graves in the cemetery, many remain unmarked.
