Goyens Family Cemetery: (Information provided by Sarah Raverly of the Texas Abandoned Cemetery Project)
The online THC atlas states the marker was "Moved from gravesite to Nacogdoches County Courthouse grounds". On page 164 of "Monuments Commemorating the Centenary of Texas Independence" written by the Centennial Commission in 1938, Goyen's marker location was given as [Goyens Family Cemetery, 4 mi W of Nacogdoches] . The original marker applications were done by the Counties, then verified by 4 state historians.
It may be a cow pasture now, but it was designated as a cemetery in 1936 and upon the subsequent removal of the marker.
