There is a lot of history buried at the Port O’Connor Cemetery, including the fact that three generations of Matagorda Island Lighthouse Keepers are buried there. There are many families whose history is important to our community and the Cemetery Board is anxious to hear from anyone with something to add to our knowledge.

Anyone who is willing to share what they know of their family’s history is asked to contact Marie Hawes at 920-2322, Bob Allen at 983-2266, any other Board member, or the Dolphin Talk.
