acton state park

I lived across the street from Acton State Park for 8 years. It is deceiving to call it a state park. Yes, it is the smallest state park in TX. and may hold some interested for that reason. But it is actually just a tombstone in a very small fenced in area of the cemetary (a cemetary lot).

Acton is Texas' smallest state park. Elizabeth Crockett, wife of Alamo hero David Crockett, rests here under a large monument. Confederate veterans are also buried here. This takes some effort to reach, but is interesting. Bring pencil and paper to do gravestone rubbings as many of the stones are now unreadable.

Small but cute cemetary. Davy Crockett's wife and family buried here. Understand descendants still live in the area
