Vogelsang Cemetery
Cameron, Milam County, Texas

Below is the complete alphabetical listing of Vogelsang Cemetery as of Dec 2006.  The same transcription is available in the Milam County, TXGenWeb Archives that I transcribed in February of 2002.  The listing in the archives is missing two people, but has the inscriptions of all transcribed tombstones listed as of February 2002.  They are numbered by rows and a map I drew is included on the Milam County Cemetery Page, located here.

The President of the Vogelsang Cemetery Church of Christ Cemetery Association is Curtis Lucko; Treasurer, Ann Juergen and Secretary, Charlene Vogelsang.  Yearly meetings are held once a year in February at the Church of Christ in Ben Arnold, Texas and member dues are $7 per family.  If you are intrested in the Vogelsang Cemetery, please contact me and I can give you Mr. Lucko's phone number.

The Vogelsang Cemetery is located between Cameron, Milam Co. & Rosebud, Falls Co, the Vogelsang Community is actually in Ben Arnold. Directions to the Vogelsang Cemetery from Cameron: Travel on Highway 77 (north-bound), pass intersection of FM 485 & Hwy. 77, then go to Ben Arnold. At Ben Arnold there will be an old gas station, turn right on FM 1444. Go down FM 1444 for about 5 miles, then on a hill (second hill and second bridge) the sign, Vogelsang Cemetery, this turn will be on the left, and it will be Co. Rd.137.Go down Co. Rd. 137 for about 3 tenths of a mile and the cemetery will be on the left, park right across from the cemetery.

Right across the cemetery is where Augusta Schwarting-Vogelsang (wife of Frederick (Fritz) Vogelsang) erected a church for the Vogelsang Community; it was torn down in the 1960’s,the scrap lumber from this church was sent to Ben Arnold along with some lumber from a church in Burlington to build a church in Ben Arnold. The cemetery is in two sections, the 'old' section and the 'new' section. The old part is on the left side and the gravestones are at about a 45 degree angle facing the east. The new part is on the right and the gravestones are facing the south.

There are 129 tombstones with markers and possible unmarked graves.
The oldest gravestone is of Wilhelmine Schroeder who died in 1885.

**Note**  Frederick & Augusta (Schwarting) Vogelsang are my Great-Great Grandparents.
