The Northern Hills subdivision borders the cemetery on one side and Northern Hills Elementary on the other. “Now, the family has custody of the entire original cemetery property,” said Everett Fly an architect and landscape architect nationally known for his preservation work. Fly said the Hockley-Clay Cemetery actually had been there for more than 100 years before they actually bought their homes. It was the curiosity of a retired Air Force major, James Michael Wright, a Northern Hills homeowner, that led to the discovery of the lost cemetery while walking his children to school in 2014.
