Suicide

Sometimes we need professional help. I have been doing this for many years. Don’t play with suicidal thoughts. Seek council. Call me. Call a friend. Call a doctor. Get off unprescribed drugs. Get on the prescribed, if needed. I can’t tell you more any stronger. God’s help first came to me in a mental institution.

Leesburg Cemetery

Tidbits of NE Texas Leesburg Cemetery

Dwight Hays Townsend (1834-1906) donated land for this cemetery about 1870. The graves of two children which were relocated here from the Leesburg schoolyard are thought to be the earliest burials on the site. The oldest marked grave is that of Tapley Wylie (1836-1870). This cemetery is the primary burial ground for the rural community of Leesburg. Those interred here include pioneer settlers, community leaders, a large number of infants and children, and veterans of the Civil War, World Wars I and II, Korea, and Vietnam. --Historical Marker, placed in 1992
