In Richmond, going south on FM 762, turn left on Country Club Drive. At dead end turn right on Shady Lane. Go one block and turn left on Fairway to 505 on south side of road to Willie Mae Kirksey home and ask permission to visit. Cemetery is on the north side of the road, across the street from the Kirksey home. This site is currently overgrown but regularly maintained by Coffman relatives. Some of the stones have fallen and are covered with brush. A subdivision borders the site to the NW and the prison in the area is planning to widen Fairway in the future, which threatens the site. Ms. Kirksey says that the cemetery is active and will be used by her family in the future. |
