  1. Thanks for the info. It may have been a urban legend? I thought I saw it in the newspaper or on tv but I was in my 20's then and now I am in my 50's. We did dig a few old antique bottles from a bottle dump some dating from the 1880's.
  2. Looking for info on homes that were located along Strang Road at Sen's Road near Brinson Point and Du Pont Plant. Pictures or maps showing homes. There was a murder case about a man who killed his family in one of these homes, it had a large pool. I think this happened in the 1980's? I remember going to this spot when I was younger and walking through the woods pass the old pool covered in green slim and the empty house in which the so called murders happened. This may have been a urban legend? Been almost 30 years so I am not sure? Need some great minds on this one..................
  3. In the early 1850's a Stage Coach Inn was established about 75-100 yards south of the gully in what is now Mangum Manor Park and most of the back yards of the houses that back up to the park from Poinciana. This was part of the Stage line from San Antonio to Houston. During the Civil war there was a battle of Bear Creek where 5 Yankee soldiers were killed. The stage came through that area just after the battle. They stopped the stage and put the dead soldiers on to be taken to the Inn for burial. They were buried under the big oak trees that are by the Tennis court. By Jean West/2009 99th Illinois Infantry September 8,1862 was sent to Rolla, Mo., thence, September 17, to Salem, Dent county, thence, November 20, to Houston, Texas. Was assigned to the Brigade of Brigadier General Fitz Henry Warren. Was engaged in a skirmish at Bear Creek, losing 1 killed, 4 wounded and 1 taken prisoner. I guess the 4 wounded died and made 5 dead Union Soldiers. GEW/2012
  4. The Morse Cemetery is losing the good fight. It may be no more................
  5. Looking for pictures of the Super Slide that was located on Telophone Rd. and Almeda Genoa Rd. Went there as a kid. Slid down on burlap sacks. It was a ruin for many years and I wished I had taken pictures of it. Thanks for any help!!!!!!!!!?????????????
  6. That is my website, just wanted to add more info to it. George E. Wolf Jr. Cemeteries and History of Harris Co.,Texas
  7. Thank you so much for this info. I was also working on this cemetery too. AAAAAAA+++++++
  8. From website Burials of Harris Co.,Texas. Galena Park Cemetery? (w. of Clinton Dr, n. of the Houston Ship Channel, about 200 yards from the old Dickinson Gun Plant site. The cemetery is surrounded by a 4 foot cement wall.} I was just wondering myself were they got this info?
  9. Looking for info or location of the old Dickinson Gun Plant site. Near there is or was the Galena Park,Cemetery? West of Clinton Dr, north of the Houston Ship Channel, about 200 yards from the old Dickinson Gun Plant site. The cemetery is surrounded by a 4 foot cement wall? Could this location be reach? Thanks for any info.
  10. I stand corrected. The graves were moved, not sure if all were moved? I found the family plot at Forest Park Lawndale Cemetery. Kuhlmann Family plot, section C. Still trying to figure out who is where?
  11. Here is a map with more detail of the Kuhlmann Cemetery. Not to scale.......
  12. I went out to the Kuhlmann Family Cemetery today on Roseneath. Went back in the woods were the cemetery would be. Near the back of the woods, next to a small gully is the 30' by 30" wall of hand made bricks. This is were the graves of this family would be. There are no markers in this area. BUT down a small slope in the gully is two marble stones that would be from the cemetery. The large one is to heavy to turn over to see if it has a name on it . The other small one is blank. These may be the bases to the gravestones that once were there. I don't think the graves have been moved. I could be wrong. Here is some pics from it.
  13. I was wondering if anyone has heard of Eden Park in Houston? The artifact was found near Magnolia Park and dates 1910-1930's? It may be from somewhere else. Top says EDEN Middle has a 4 and bottom has Park on it. Could this be from a Houston park?
  14. Here is a old coupon from Games People Play 1982. Enjoy......
  15. Thanks for the info. The lady that give me this material was sure there was a cemetery under the church parking lot... Thanks again.... George
