County Texas Cemeteries
Dilworth Cemetery
Orange Grove, Jim Wells County, Texas
This cemetery is located at the corner of County
Rd 226 and FM-624, West of Orange Grove, near
Midway. There is a family plot near FM-624 that can be seen from the
highway. Other burials are further back from the road, and there are at least 3
headstones that are somewhat scattered from the rest. There are 2 entries, one
off FM-624 and the other off CR-226. There are no signs.
I’m trying to find out more information about this cemetery. Please contact me with any corrections and/or additions.
