I am a long time professional photographer, now retired, and genealogist (over 60 years), and long time historian of Coleman County, Texas (over 50 years). Over 30 years ago, I, along with my wife, Judia, and Vena Bob Gates, published all of the marked grave inscriptions in Coleman County, Texas in the 3 volume, "Coleman County Cemetery Inscriptions." I also have these records online at www.ralphterry.com, at the link "Coleman County History."

I have welcomed Find-A-Grave to help carry on what myself and others are doing to keep local history information available and not forgotten. I began in the middle of March 2011 adding memorials that have not been added for Coleman County. I will continue to visit cemeteries in Coleman County, adding to Find A Grave and local history, and strive to finish projects that my late wife, Judia and I started together even before we married in 1986.

Judia had dementia and passed away from pneumonia on October 11, 2021. She was a professional artist and very accomplished. Judia loved flowers of all varieties ... Please visit her memorial and leave her a few flowers at Judia's Memorial

If I have a memorial that you would like to administer, just let me know. I am glad to transfer any memorials I have created to you, except for my family memorials.
