Before becoming the Republic of Texas, a man named William Robinson received land in what later became Walker County. The land would become known as Robinson's Settlement complete with a Methodist church, a cemetery and a school house. Located seven miles southwest of Huntsville, TX all that remains of Robinson's Settlement is its cemetery, Martha's Chapel Cemetery. From claims of paranormal activity in recent years to present-day vandalism, Martha's Chapel Cemetery continues reminding its visitors of the pioneering heritage that existed in Robinson's Settlement.
