The oldest marked grave is that of Emma Fulton (d. 1876), granddaughter of George Ware Fulton, who was instrumental in the development of the area and was interred in the cemetery in 1893. A large number of burials took place here in 1918, the year of a devastating influenza epidemic. The cemetery contains the graves of veterans of the Texas Revolution, Civil War, World War I, World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. The Rockport Cemetery Association maintains the historic graveyard.

Thought I'd post this here as well. Justfound another Court/Sparks connection. Remember I asked you if the Sparks that I knew of down in Rockport, Aransas Co., TX were related to the Jefferson Co ones? well in the obituary of Wanda Rouquette Sparks (a cousin to me via the Rouquette/Simpson family)it mentions her sister-in-law- Mary Ellen COURT of SC! Isn't this curious?! Cindy
