North Belton Cemetery
Belton, Texas

From downtown Belton, go north on Main Street toward Temple.
You will pass the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor on the left.
Continue over the bridge for about a mile to the cemetery on the left.
Enter the cemetery through the brick gate, turn right on the first drivable
(unpaved) lane, then left on the first paved lane.  Continue toward
a main paved lane that intersects the one you are on. From that
intersection, you will want to walk east for the length of 3 plots,
then walk south for about 3 plots.  The Mayo plot should be on your left.

All of the graves shown here are within the paved Mayo plot. 


The Mayo plot.  In the front row, left to right are the
graves of James and Julia Mayo, Stephen and Dora Mayo,
Charles Mayo and J. F. Mayo.
In the rear row, left to right are the
graves of Oliver Mayo, Jesse Mayo, Henry Mayo,
H. E. Anderson and George W. Huddleston

oddly, this tombstone shows no date of death,
but it is obviously a child's grave judging by the
paved border
