A long overdue effort to locate unmarked graves at Mount Olive Cemetery in Stephenville is underway.
City manager Allen Barnes told Beneath the Surface News that the first of three studies began on Wednesday.
“We are working with Texas State University to use ground penetrating radar to locate unmarked graves at Mount Olive Cemetery,” Barnes said. “It is believed there are as many as 80 unmarked graves.
“If they are found, we plan to place a stone at each one with the word ‘unknown.’”
The city is also working with Tarleton State University on the project, including Dr. Sherri Benn, vice president for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
“Dr. Benn is going to be an integral part of this,” Barnes said. “She and her students will be working to help the city document the project.”
Mount Olive Cemetery is an African-American burial site that began and was fueled by deep-seated racism.
I have always been fascinated with its past and have written extensively about it during the course of my career.
The last story I wrote about Mount Olive Cemetery was published in 2019.

People searching for Maanwin Game may be looking for the main website, account information, or an explanation of how the platform is structured. I would start by checking the exact domain instead of assuming every result with the same phrase belongs to the same site. Once there, the registration and login sections can provide useful information for new and existing users. The Maanwin Game search phrase can also appear on third-party pages, so checking the source is important. I would avoid entering account credentials on pages that do not clearly match the intended website.
