I do not have any connections with the Huff family that I know of.My great-grandmother "Josie Nail" and one of her sons "Lloyd Nail" are buried in the New Isom Springs Cemetery.There may actually be more Huffs in this cemetery.There are at least 576 souls buried there and very few tombstones.Mostly, metal markers that are barely legible or destroyed.Many of these markers say "Unknown".The people buried in this cemetery were originally buried in a cemetery called the "Isom Springs Cemetery" which was one of several cemeteries that were moved during the construction of the Lake Texoma Dam. The name of the original cemetery, plot and grave numbers were recorded on each marker and records for these can be found at Ft Worth, Texas in the National Archives.We are in the process of cleaning and restoring this cemetery.If I can be of anymore help, please let me know.
