Annual Bethel Cemetery Meeting September 25, 2010 Frankston, Anderson County, Texas

Texas Historical site.....
Special meeting called by resigned "secretery" to vote on whether or not to combine cemetery donations with church restoration funds. The "secretery" resigned by letter at the Annual Cemetery Business Meeting on May 22, 2010, but attended this meeting to "hand down" her position to her sister. There is a little over $10,000.00 in donations held at the First State Bank of Frankston, which were collected for upkeep of the cemetery.

With full control of the funds, the "Secretery", had refused to build a fence to keep out wild hogs, which had envaded the cemetery in January of 2010. Private citizens gave of their own money to build a new fence, and paid $400.00 to have about 10 loads of brush cut and hauled off from inside the cemetery fence..

Plans had been by the "secretery" and a select few, to tear down the old church building and build an arbor. You can hear her falsely claiming the property it sits on, from a ninety year old man and his wife of seventy years. The couple have a deed, and guaranteed title to this property. They pay the taxes and have leased it for oil drilling several times.
