Oakville Historic Texas Cemetery

Oakville Historic Texas Cemetery Association President Bernard Lemley unveils the Historic Texas Cemetery Medallion which now accompanies the Oakville Cemetery Texas Historical Marker. Lemley worked alongside sister, Peggy Skoruppa to add the Wreaths Across Ameaca progran to the event. "They've begun a wonderful tradition many folks really appreciated," said LOCHC Marker Chair, Richard Hudson. Full Oakville Historic Texas Cemetery Marker narrative with archival past and present.

Judge Jim Huff and a veteran member of Live Oak County's Veterans of Foreign Wars stand behind wreaths representing all six branches of American service. Every veteran buried in Oakville Cemetery had a wreath laid on their grave in coordination with Wreaths Across America on December 15, 2018. On that same day, the Oakville Historical Texas Cemetery Medallion awarded by the Texas Historical Commission in conjunction with the Live Oak County Historical Commission was unveiled next to the Texas Historical Marker for Oakville Cemetery placed there in 1968.
