Southland Memorial Park Cemetery
(Dallas County)
   It is located at the corner of W. Gramley St. and N.W. 3rd St.  Main entrance is on N.W. 3rd St with an alternate entrance on W. Gramley.  GPGS volunteers began recording and photographing this cemetery in 2016 and finished in 2023.  This is a large cemetery and took time to complete.
   The burial location assigned by GPGS is not the official record of burial by Southland Memorial Park. Those records were not made available to us. Our assigned location is to assist in any visitors, without documentation, in finding the tombstone.
   All sections, A through P, have now all been recorded and photographed and are available to view on this website.   Please note, burials that may have occurred after our section recording had taken place will not be in our records.  Markers are numbered consecutively as the markers existed at the date of recording.  Subsequent burials could change the actual numbering but searching further in the row should reveal any newly placed markers.  Each sections recording begins in the northwest corner; rows progressing west to east and markers from north to south.    The last section recoded (P) is located in front of Old Southland Cemetery on the east side of 3rd Street and is now behind a new fence.
   
     An unofficial opening date was in the late 1940's.
