The Mansfield Cemetery is located in the city limits, south on Main Street, right on F.M. 917 and right on Burl Ray Drive (Mapsco grid 124W). Cumberland Presbyterian is the oldest section of the cemetery and bears a Texas Historical Subject Marker. The land was deeded for the Cumberland Section by Ralph Man in 1876. Another section is the Bratton Family section dedicated for the descendants of the Bratton family. The T.E. Blessing section was dedicated by Mr. Ernie Blessing. He and his wife Hattie owned a furniture store and the funeral home. Hattie was one of the first licensed female embalmers in the state of Texas. Early settler were buried here and helped found the town by starting churches, schools, gristmills and civic organizations.
