The Gass Family Cemetery is a small historic burial ground located in the Spring Branch area of Comal County, Texas. Like many family cemeteries in the Hill Country, it reflects the early settlement patterns of the region, where pioneer families established private burial plots on or near their homesteads rather than in centralized town cemeteries.

The cemetery is associated with the Gass family and related families who helped shape the early agricultural and rural community of Spring Branch during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Such family cemeteries were common among early settlers, particularly those of German and European descent, and often contain only a limited number of marked graves, with additional unmarked or undocumented burials possible.

Today, the Gass Family Cemetery stands as an important reminder of the area’s early residents and their contributions to the community. Preserving and documenting sites like this ensures that these individuals are not forgotten and that their service, labor, and legacy remain part of the historical record. Ongoing efforts focus on respectful care, documentation, and historical research to safeguard the cemetery for future generations.
