This family burial ground marks the homestead of Johann Schlobohm, a veteran of the Texas Revolution and an early settler of Harris County. Born in the Hanover region of Germany in 1807, he was in New Orleans by March 15, 1836, when he enlisted in the Zavalla Guards, 2nd Regiment Volunteer Infantry. His group reached Galveston before the Battle of San Jacinto, and after the battle they guarded Mexican General Santa Anna. Under the name John Slaburn, he continued serving in the Texian Army in Company D, First Regiment, permanent volunteers, from April 1836 to November 1837. In 1850 he married Charlotte Caroline Kleibrink at the home of his neighbor and comrade-in-arms Peter Dykeman. In 1856 the family bought 82 acres along Greens Bayou and built their home there, enlarging the farm to 246 acres in 1858. The cemetery began with the burial of their daughter Fredericka in 1873. John and Caroline had eight children, and six of them are buried there with their families and descendants. A quarter-acre was officially dedicated for the family cemetery in 1895 and enlarged to a full acre eight years later. Members of the Schlobohm and Nicol families cared for the graveyard for many years, and at a family reunion in 1988 descendants formed the Schlobohm Cemetery Association, which has maintained the property since then. At least ten veterans are buried there, including Confederate veteran John Milton Morin and others who served in both World Wars and later conflicts. Granite, marble, and bronze grave markers stand there, and the original 82-acre homestead remained forested and undeveloped in the early 21st century, 150 years after the family settled there.
