Glenwood and the Oilfield

Houston’s history has deep ties to the oilfield, so it’s no surprise that the lives of many Houstonians buried at historic Glenwood Cemetery involve oil. Learn more about these larger-than-life figures during this program featuring Preservation Houston Programs Director Jim Parsons and Glenwood Cemetery Executive Director Richard Ambrus.
This program was recorded live September 25, 2021, as part of the Legacy of Houston series marking the 150th anniversary of Glenwood's founding.
