If I am not mistaken if the cemetery is on private property then you have a right to visit 1 Sunday in April and 1 Sunday in October. During normal business hours. And I believe the Sundays are the first Sundays in those 2 months.

From what I remember you are right, but I believe it is limited to two, maybe three times a year instead of just anytime one might want to go. RE: You say the cemetery is on private property, but not open to the public. I am thinking that through considerable discussion involving cemeteries, that there is a law that requires cemeteries to be made available to the public, no matter if it is on private property or not. Been too long ago to remember the details. Maybe Ms. Hawkins could shed light on the subject. Armond

CAMEY SPUR, TEXAS. Camey Spur (Camey) was on State Highway 121 sixteen miles southeast of Denton in southeastern Denton County. It was established about 1852 and named for Capt. William McKamy. For a time it served as a spur on the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway. A post office operated in Camey Spur from 1913 through 1925. In 1914 the community had a cotton gin, two general stores, and a population of thirty. It had two businesses and a population of forty-seven during the 1930s and 1940s, after which no population statistics were available.
