The old amusement site at Humble

Texas · USA · Church

The graves here were moved. The site stood empty for years before the church took it over.

This site at Humble, Texas is now a church. Before that it was an amusement business, and between the two it stood abandoned for years.

What is reported there is attributed to graves that were moved when the ground was developed.

There is a bench outside the building where something is described every night.

Moving a cemetery is more common in Texas than most people realise, and the practice has a long history of being done badly. Markers were relocated while remains stayed put, records were incomplete, and family plots on rural land had no legal protection worth the name until relatively recently.

Whether that happened here is not documented, but it is the explanation local people reach for, and they usually reach for it because somebody remembers the graves being there.

The property is now a church and is private.
