abstract
This article discusses cemetery access easements and access agreements under the lens of an emerging contemporary theoretical approach: social moral theory of property law. Part II reviews the history of public and private monuments in Texas, 19th-century cemetery preservation efforts, and other important Texas historic sites. Part III describes cemetery access easements under the current Texas legal and regulatory system. Part IV discusses barriers to awareness and access as the greatest threats to the current and future status of nineteenth-century Texas family cemeteries on rural private lands. Finally, Part V proposes incentives, approaches, and recommendations to strengthen the Texas Cemetery Access Easement Act to promote the preservation of 19th-century Texas family cemeteries on rural private lands.
