It is possible to get the SCORE program to clean cemeteries in Collin Co. SCORE is minimum security county prisoners who do the work in the morning and go to classes in the afternoons. They will do clean up of the yardwork variety, but they do not repair stones. Send requests through the county Sheriff's Dept. Someone representing the person making the request must be at the cemetery at the time the prisoners are cleaning it. Honaker/Murchison Cemeteries have been cleaned at least three times by them.

He could have been a child of your couple. Their names are not included. This information is from COLLIN COUNTY, TEXAS, CEMETERY INSCRIPTIONS, Volume I, published by my mother, Alice Ellison Pitts, and which I have available for purchase. Mom kept an extensive set of files of Collin County communities, and in her files I find a lengthy history of St. Paul Community. It was founded in the 1850s. I feel confident it was a thriving community in the 1880s for I had relatives living nearby at "Dump" St. Paul is carried on the latest map produced by one of the Collin County departments.
