About Us

Preserving History. Honoring Lives. Serving the Community.

ROBEY CEMETERY INC is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation, restoration, and ongoing care of Robey Cemetery, a historic burial ground that holds deep cultural and community significance. Established with a mission to honor the past while educating the present, we serve as stewards of this sacred land—ensuring that the lives, stories, and heritage of those buried here are never forgotten.

Our Purpose

Robey Cemetery is more than just a resting place; it is a historical landmark and a testament to the lives and legacies of generations before us. Our organization was founded out of a deep respect for those interred here and a commitment to maintaining the dignity and integrity of the site for families, descendants, and the wider community.

We work to:

  • Maintain and protect the cemetery grounds and headstones

  • Preserve historical records and genealogical data

  • Promote community involvement through education and volunteer efforts

  • Advocate for recognition and support of historic cemeteries in local and state initiatives

Our History

Over time, weather, neglect, and development pressures have threatened the site's condition and visibility. ROBEY CEMETERY INC was formed in response—to protect what remains and restore what has been lost.

Our Team

ROBEY CEMETERY INC is led by a group of passionate volunteers, local historians, descendants, and community members who believe in the value of heritage and remembrance. Our board and supporters work together to carry out restoration projects, raise funds, and engage the public in our mission.

Why It Matters

Cemeteries are vital pieces of local history. They tell stories of migration, struggle, triumph, and tradition. By preserving Robey Cemetery, we preserve a part of our collective identity. We create a space for reflection, learning, and connection—across time and generations.
