Sorry, Trevia, no KEY Map but I do show Hill Top Road running northwest to
southeast and intersecting Hwy 59 just 0.3 miles up Hwy 59 from the San
Bernadino River in Fort Bend County (I think the river is the county line).  Hopefully
that will get you close.

Reuben Lewis
born Sep 15 1842
Died Oct 1 1909
Gone but not Forgotten

Paul - Not knocking all the other good tools out there ... but how can anyone
doing cemeteries do without a Key Map, especially when you're on a field
trip? Or the Roads of Texas atlas .. or a county road map? It's o.k., I know the
usual answers.

Anyway, Hill Top is CR 934 ... KEY MAP 878D and 852Z ..
both references place it Brazoria Co ... seems that pg 852 would place it
nearer the San BERNARD River, county line between Brazoria & Matagorda ...

But I'm going to place this "unknown" in Fort Bend County ... Using the
County Road Map for Fort Bend (TXDOT 1989) there are two known cemetery locations
... between the river and Kendleton on the right; if you're leaving Kendelton
headed for the San Bernard, then of course they would be on the left.

I know about the database at the George Memorial Library ... will check with
them as soon as they are opened and see if they have Reuben listed.
