Abby Frost Cemetery

My gg greatgrandmother was Rachel Brooks Beckner. I have two dates of birth, either Feb 21, 1823 or April 24, 1824. She was married ro Benjamin Beckner on on Oct 5, 1837 in Johnson Co MO. I do know that they moved to the Dallas TX area after their marriage. I just found that she was buried in this cemetery. I am assuming that this cemetery is for Confederate soldiers and their families. I wonder if you can provide any information regarding this family. I have no information at this time regarding Benjamin's death date or place of burial. Their daughter Sarah Ellen married Barney Banks Kemp who did serve in the Conferderate army. I don't have those particular details with me at the moment but do remember that he enlisted in Fort Worth in 1862.

Thank you for your time and attention to this query as well as the research that is being done for history and and for all the families of these people.
