Available Spaces
Even
though Morton Cemetery is a historic cemetery that
began in 1825, it continues to grow and offer the
families of the Fort Bend County area a peaceful
place to inter their loved ones. We have many
requests for spaces in the older, original sections
of the cemetery but unfortunately there are none
available. However, we still have spaces available
in Section 3 and AEM. These new sections are located near the
open-air chapel and newly planted live oak trees and
contain approximately 1100 available spaces. If you
are interested in purchasing spaces in Morton
Cemetery, please contact our office to schedule an
appointment.

 Chapel
In
2008 an open-air chapel was constructed in Morton
Cemetery. This chapel is available for burial
services or group gatherings for a fee. Please
contact our office to make arrangements.
