THE STONEHAM CEMETERY: Franklin Jarvis Greenwood(1804-1882), who came to Texas in 1829, donated land for this cemetery. It was originally called "Highpoint" for a nearby settlement. The first known interments were Greenwood's daughters Mary Ann(b 1840) and Harriett. They died in 1856 of Cholera. Graves of Yellow Fever victims were specially marked to avoid spread of the epidemic. Many burials are descendants of Stephen F Austin colonist. The name of the cemetery & town changed to "Stoneham" after John H Stoneham(1829-1894) gave land for the railroad in 1879.
