Pollard-Gregory Cemetery
From Denton, take I35E North to Era, Exit FR 922. At the intersection of FM 922 and FM 51 go south on FM 51 for 6.35 miles - on the right is several large silos with +N markings on them; across road is a white gate (locked) go through gate and follow road to the top of the hill; above a barn to the right is a dim road angling off; follow road across pasture approximately 3/4 miles; cemetery is southwest; stones are visible; then go through another gate. The cemetery is on private property.On December 21, 1900, Mr. I.D. Pollard deeded four acres of land for use as a cemetery. Even though several burials were already at the location, a deed was filed to protect the cemetery for all times. Filed in Denton County Courthouse, Vol. 69, page 592.
This is a large abandoned cemetery; however in January 1990 a cemetery association was formed by descendants of people buried there, and the cemetery is cleaned and well cared for; the last burial in the cemetery was in 1962. The county road that gave access to the cemetery was closed, eliminating burials in Pollard-Gregory Cemetery.
