🕊️ Funeral Service Pioneer — A Legacy Established in the 1800s 🕊️

This historic image honors J. Marion Frierson (born 1865), founder of Frierson & Sons Funeral Home, established in Houston, Texas, circa 1897–1898.

Historical records indicate that Frierson & Sons was one of the first—if not the very first—African American–owned funeral homes in the state of Texas, and very likely the first in Houston. Operating initially from 203 San Felipe Street in Houston’s historic Fourth Ward (later 201–203 West Dallas Avenue), the firm became a cornerstone of dignity, professionalism, and service during an era when such care was often denied to Black families.

By 1902, Frierson was formally recognized in legal and city records as a respected undertaker in Houston. His business continued to expand, and by 1919, the original single-room operation had grown to occupy the full building—clear evidence of community trust and professional excellence.

This piece will be proudly displayed on our Wall of Funeral Service Pioneers, honoring the men and women whose courage, vision, and commitment laid the foundation for funeral service in Texas.
