How can I find help with that? </summary> <hr> <div class="card-body pt-2"> <p>Historical markers and other state historical designations, such as historic properties, are issued and regulated by the Texas Historical Commission. We suggest that you reach out directly to them to answer your questions. Here are some useful resources from the Texas Historical Commission:</p> <ul> <li>Historic sites: <a href="https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/thc-state-historic-sites">https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/thc-state-historic-sites</a></li> <li>Historic markers: <a href="https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/state-historical-markers">https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/state-historical-markers</a></li> <li>Historic property designations: <a href="https://www.thc.texas.gov/project-review/statutes-regulations-rules">https://www.thc.texas.gov/project-review/statutes-regulations-rules</a></li> <li>County courthouse programs: <a href="https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/texas-historic-courthouse-preservation">https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/texas-historic-courthouse-preservation</a></li> <li>Cemetery preservation: <a href="https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/cemetery-preservation">https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/cemetery-preservation</a></li> </ul> </div> </details> <details class="border rounded bg-newspaper p-3 mb-2 mt-3"> <summary> I have a private, family cemetery on my property, and I want to find out more about the people who are buried there. Where do I start? </summary> <hr> <div class="card-body pt-2"> <p>There are a couple things you will want to find out in this search. First, it may be tricky to track down biographical information about the people who are buried there, especially if they were born before the formal registration of birth certificates (1903 in Texas). If there is no state vital data on these individuals, you may have more luck finding birth, marriage, and death information from their church, if you happen to know what church or denomination these individuals attended and if the records still exist. Failing that, search all churches in the area for their vital statistics. </p> <p>If you want to survey the graves yourself, you will want to familiarize yourself with some of the laws applicable to private cemeteries. The Texas Historical Commission has put together a comprehensive guide on how to locate and handle unregistered graves: <a href="https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/cemetery-preservation/maintenance-conservation-and-repair/locating">https://www.thc.texas.gov/preserve/projects-and-programs/cemetery-preservation/maintenance-conservation-and-repair/locating</a>. If you choose to investigate the grave, you will likely need to hire a qualified archaeologist to properly conduct the excavation. A full list of qualified archeologists working in Texas is maintained by the Council of Texas Archeologists (CTA) on their website: <a href="https://counciloftexasarcheologists.org/?page_id=5">http://counciloftexasarcheologists.org/?page_id=5</a>.</p> </div> </details> <details class="border rounded bg-newspaper p-3 mb-2 mt-3"> <summary> I have recently done a genealogy search, and I am trying to find more information about my ancestors or family members.

There are several online resources that you may find helpful, or you may choose to hire someone to undertake professional research on your behalf.
