History
Seabrook Cemetery, north of the city of Seabrook near Pine Gully Park in Harris County, traces its beginnings to the 1850s and the family of Ritson Morris and his daughter Mary Jane Dobie. Several early burials there record the tragic losses of the Dobie family between 1855 and 1857. The land later passed through the Menard and Seureau families, and the cemetery now holds hundreds of graves.
