Pictures and Video from Captain Isaac Conroe Graveside Remembrance Ceremony
It was a beautiful fall morning as members of Camp 2 arrived at historic Glenwood Cemetery in Houston Heights to take part in a graveside ceremony honoring Civil War veteran, Captain Isaac Conroe. Conroe served as Captain of the 12th Illinois Cavalry and migrated to Texas after the war. He built a lumber business, and eventually founded the nearby city of Conroe, Texas.
The ceremony was supported by volunteer participants from the Sarah Emma Seelye Auxiliary No. 1, Col. Elmer E. Ellsworth Camp 18 of Dallas, and the Sarah Emma Edmonds Detached Tent No. 4, DUVCW. Special guests included Conroe City Councilwoman, Shana Arthur, Andrew V. Rapoza of the Montgomery County Historical Commission, and many descendants of Captain Conroe.
