Had a walk around the local cemetery this morning, now I am quite familiar
with this place but I found something I had never seen before in the oldest section This area contains graves dating back to the early to mid 1800's, and right beneath the trunk of a fairly large tree was this ![]() Well and truly buried ![]() I don't know whether this was purely by accident or design, but it makes for something certainly out of the ordinary Some more from this morning ![]() ![]() ![]()

Those names are either Czech or Slovak. Likely immigrants to the USA, and met their fate together in Guy Texas. Is there or was there a Czech or Slovak community nearby?

Some from a small abandoned (?) cemetary near the outskirts of Budapest.

People still place flowers on some of the graves, but they would likely be grandchildren or great grandchildren. The cemetary is not maintained... |
