The Texas Historical Commission (
visit link) says this cemetery was established ca.1900 and contains about 10 graves. It's 0.07 acres.
Find-A-Grave (
visit link) lists 'all' 11 interments with photographs for 91% of those listed. They list an additional name of
La Palagana Cemetery.
Only two markers have readable dates; 1916 & 1924 and no signs of any recent activity. It is unlikely that the 11th interment listed (d. Feb. 15, 2012) is in this cemetery.
A Port Isabel Tourism site (
visit link) lists the names as
Palangana Cemetery /
Santa Isabel Cemetery and they say this cemetery was designated for a Texas Historical Marker on 17 April 2006 Marker but it is not yet installed.
