This is a pictorial canvass - there are many more burials here as evidenced by what appears to be
various mounds and probably more that can't even be seen anymore. There are many burials here from 1914, especially children. This cemetery is fenced on the backside but not on the road side. It is evidently being taken care of as it was neatly mowed when I was there, Saturday, September 1, 2001.

Wyatt Chapel Cemetery is located 4 miles west of the Satterwhite church and about 1/4 mile north of the intersection on the west side of the road. Also, the old Wyatt Chapel school was located about 1/2 mile north of the intersection on the east side of the road. The foundation is still there. My father-in-law, Joe A. Cook, used to maintain the Wyatt Chapel cemetery until his death about 4 years ago. DeWayne Colwell

In the left picture above you see the Wright stone in the foreground with two unknowns located beside it showing just above it and the Lane stone is is the background and in the far background you can see the road. The picture on the right is another view of the Lane stone with the two Davis stones in the foreground.

The picture on the left again shows the Wright stone with the two unknowns beside it in the foreground and the Wyatt and Welch stones in the background. The picture on the right shows the Southern stone and the LeMay stone with two unknowns, one on either side of the LeMay stone.

The picture on the left shows the two Welch stones on the right and the Williams stone on the left side. The picture on the right shows the Wyatt stone and the two Welch stones.

In the picture on the left you can see the base of the Lane stone between the two trees in the background and you can barely see the two Bell stones under the tree in the foreground. The picture to the right shows one of the unknowns to the far right (the one next to LeMay) and the Cox and P.W. stones to the left. You can see the oilfield equipment in the background, behind the fence.

This is a view of the LeMay stone with an unknown on either side of it.
You can see the Cox and P.W. stones in the background.

On the left, ???? Davis, December 20, 1923? - April 14?, 1926? and on the right, Williae? Davis, June 21, 1919? - October 11, 1919?

Left - A.J. Wright, died age 72, March 28, 1928 and right - Stellie Irene Cox, 1883 - 1929 - Mother
I just found out that this headstone that says; Mother, Stellie Irene Cox, 1883-1929, is the daughter of LaFayette and Mitilda Green, Sarah Stella Green. She married Alexander Cox. the name is wrong, and you may want to put a note as to who she is. This info was given to me by her G G Grand daughter. Although my family tree info says Stellie Irene Cox was the name of Sarah Stella Green Cox's daughter, but the dates on that headstone are for Sarah Stella. Could it be that Stellie put that on her Mother's headstone as being her Mother? This is confusing, as the info I have says that Sarah Stella is buried in Pauls Valley Cemetery. The only thing I can figure is that the daughter put Mother (and meant her mother) of Stellie Irene because the dates are correct for it to be Sarah Stella. By Margaret Ayers

These two stones are beside A.J. Wright. The one on the right is next to Wright and the one on the left is beside it.

To the right is the Wyatt stone lying on a concrete and brick slab. To the right is W. Theodore Williams, born April 13, 1865 and died November 12, 1931 with Ida O. (Parmer) Williams, born March 17, 1868 and died March 16, 1942.

This is a view of the Williams stone showing the markers just to either side of it. These are probably the old markers for the Williams which have been replaced by the newer one, but they could be unknowns also.
