New Trinity Cemetery, Fort Worth Texas. This is a all black cemetery. It is not vandelized but neglected. When I got back to my computer I found Cemeteries of Tarrant County. This cemetery needs to be transcribed. Oh I wish I could stay here longer, I would love to do it. But I am on my way to Kansas tomorrow. There are so many neat cemeteries nearby to where I am staying.

I wanted to let you know that I contacted the city of Haltom City, Texas regarding this cemetery. It's actually 3 cemeteries in one and it was transcribed back in the 1990's. I have a copy of the entire cemetery, all 46 pages, that a Boy Scout had done all the work. It's amazing how much he did. I am trying to find out his name so that I can get this published with his permission. I will also be completing this project with pictures that I will list on Find a Grave. I just wanted to let you know that your post is not in vain. I read it!
I have family buried in this cemetary and would love to see the transcriptions. Please advise how I can obtain a copy. My email is FDRAPHEL@VERIZON.NET

Does anyone know who is in charge pig this cemetery?
My grandparents are buries here. Three years ago we went to visit the grave site. Today we went and we couldn’t find the headstones. I would love some help in finding their exact burial place. Are there owners of the cemetery?
I have many ancestors buried here on the Beach st side of the cemetery. Does anyone know who can help me markers for the gravesites? Or who I should contact at Haltom City?

I wanted to reply to everyone who has commented here, but I can't figure out how to send a message to any of you.
For anyone looking for the transcription, the Boy Scout project, there is a copy in the Fort Worth Central Public Library in the Genealogy Department. I've actually copied the whole thing and am in the process of correcting the errors that I found. I love this cemetery and hope to donate an updated book of burials and a history on the cemetery and perhaps the people in it. It'll be awhile though.
I am trying to put together a group of people to go out and manage photo requests from this cemetery. Any information anyone can give me is appreciated. If anyone has a digital copy of the work the scout did, I would love to have it!
Also, several of you posted that you have ancestors buried here. If you would like photos of the gravesite, please leave me a message here or email tazjt@yahoo.com with Cemetery Request in the subject line. I will do my best to get it done for you!
