“This place has seen a lot of history,” a voice whispered, barely audible above the gentle rustling of leaves in the Jordan-Hight Family Cemetery. Standing before you is not just a plaque but a testament to the passage of time and the enduring legacy of families who braved a new frontier. The Jordan-Hight Family Cemetery Plaque, erected in 1986, marks a site brimming with stories. It all began in 1866 when a father’s love led David A. Jordan to designate this plot of land as the final resting place for his son-in-law, Robert A. Hight. What began as a family plot would soon become a sanctuary for the community. The cemetery, a silent chronicle of Grand Prairie’s early days, holds the remains of pioneers from families like the Bowles, Brannan, Robertson, Miller, along with the Jordan and Hight families. Today, thanks to the Jordan-Hight Family Cemetery Association formed in 1955, these stories continue to be honored and preserved. As you stand before the plaque, take a moment to reflect on the lives that shaped this land, their stories echoing through the ages.
