Glenwood Cemetery
Glenwood Cemetery's south sector has the distinction of opening shortly after Houston County was created and the county seat established in 1837. The north sector was opened in 1870 after the city and county reorganized following the reconstruction after the Civil War. The southeast quadrant of the oldest burial ground was reclaimed with a cleanup for the Texas Sesquicentennial. Glenwood's North and South Sectors were accorded official Texas Historical Markers in 1972.
