Cemeteries of Collin County, Texas, by Joy Gough

The Alexander Cemetery is on the J. M. Kincaid survey. The first grave was that of William Alexander in 1855.

The cemetery was given to the "precinct" by James Alexander in 1890 in Vol 46, p 382. It covers about 2 acres of land and is near Hurricane Creek.

This cemetery is fenced with a 4-foot chain-link fence and a gate. There is a large wooden sign on the fence saying "Alexander Cemetery." There were once several bois d'arc markers. One wooden marker has become embedded in some tree trunks over the years. Slaves were buried in their masters' family plots.

The cemetery has several cedar trees and 2 large burr oaks.
