Waco, Texas

The earliest Jewish community in Waco, Texas dates from 1847 (sojourners) and permanently from 1853. In 1873, sixteen Jewish families and twenty young men lived there. The 1876 Jewish population was 150 out of 8,000 inhabitants. Located next to First Street Cemetery, the inactive cemetery was established in 1869 with only five burials in the 1870s. The oldest gravestone dates from 1869. The cemetery was enlarged by land purchased in 1893 and 1922. There are 100-500 granite flat stones with English, Hebrew, and Sephardic inscriptions exist. The present owner is the local Jewish community.
