Cemeteries of Collin County, Texas, by Joy Gough

COLLIN COUNTY CEMETERY INSCRIPTIONS II says this cemetery is near the Rockwall County line. It is actually near the Dallas County line. Ballard Street takes the name of Sachse Road at the county line. The cemetery is in a clump of trees next to a barbed-wire fence near the road. No stones are visible.

This cemetery used to have 4 or 5 graves that belonged to the Stone family. The cemetery was between the second house and the corner. The graves have been moved, according to the man in the first house. He does not know where. COLLIN COUNTY CEMETERY INSCRIPTIONS II lists 2 graves for the Stone family. The land in the area belongs to the Groves family, hence the name of Groves family cemetery. The Groves family did not use it. In talking with a member of the Groves family, he did not know anything about the cemetery or whether the graves had been moved.
