KENNARD COMMUNITY CEMETERY (Kennard New Hope)

PHOTOGRAPHS of this Cemetery (USGenWeb Archives off site)

The Kennard Community Cemetery - Kennard New Hope Cemetery is located west of Kennard on Hwy. 7.

Burial was first begun by the school and church in downtown Kennard. When Kennard started the "timber boom" it was decided that a new cemetery should be established outside of town. A plot was purchased in 1903 FOR $18.00 from George and Patsy Washington, heirs of the Talford family. The deed is recorded in the Houston County Deed Records Vol. 35, pp. 54 and 55.

In 1966 the Kennard black school burned and integrated with the Kennard white school. The land was sold and the cemetery totally destroyed.

Kennard city limits has moved beyond the cemetery and application for a new sign has been made, changing the cemetery name to Kennard Community Cemetery. The cemetery has 262 graves, many which are unmarked, and is maintained by the cemetery committee and free will donations.
