The Keith family was very prevalent in the development of the area around the Town of Cookville. Three of the Titus County Cemeteries bear their name and several Keiths are buried in the Cookville cemetery. This cemetery will be called Keith #3 as it was the most recent of the three. It lies on a hilltop a short distance West of the business section of Cookville. It is a deeded acre of land set aside as a family burial place. At this writing it is sparely used and therefore will last some time into the future. It is well maintained with a locked gate restricting automobile access to it.
To reach the Keith #3 Cemetery from the Titus County courthouse, take Jefferson Avenue (US 271) North for 0.9 miles to the intersection with US 67 (16th Street). Turn right (East) on US 67 and proceed 7.1 miles to the intersection of FM 1000. Turn right (South) onto FM 1000 and continue for 0.2 mile to the intersection of County Road (CR) 4054 (CR SE 17) which parallels the railroad tracks. Turn right onto CR 4054 and proceed 0.4 mile to the intersection of an unnamed black topped road that intersects from the right. Turn right onto that road. The gate to the cemetery lies about 0.1 mile at the end of that road. The cemetery can be found at the crest of the hill. Coordinates: 33o10.976N 094o51.594W
