* Information on Walling Bend Cemetery: Located in Bosque County near Greenwade Crossing on the Brazos River, later a Ferry, and where in 1912 an iron bridge was erected by Bosque and Hill Counties, there was a community called Walling Bend. The cemetery there was relocated to Whitney (Whitney Cemetery), Hill County, Texas when the Whitney Dam was built. There were also 101 unknown graves and 1 grave listed as a Mexican Grave.
