Our Humble History - "The Fields Family of Humble"

(Tribune)

There are many families in Humble that have contributed to the community over several generations, but very few families have contributed to Humble as much as the Fields family. The Fields family originally moved to Humble in 1885, headed by patriarch Jeremiah Fields (1833-1915). It was one of Jeremiah’s sons, Charles Fields, Sr. (1882-1947), who purchased Rosewood Memorial Park Cemetery in 1937. It is also Charles’ descendants that we know so well today.
