Is there a cemetery in the Farmersville area? If so has it been transcribed? I would like very much to know if my ggrandparents Rev. James Carroll Bumpass and Emily Bumpass are buried there. Also, are there other Bumpass/as/us families buried there? What other cemeteries are in that general area? Thanks for any help given. Carolyn Bumpus/as Lamb

Is that anyone available to do lookups at the Collin Co courthouse. I called the County Clerks office today about writing to get lookups but they replied that they do not do genealogical lookups. Any suggestions? I am looking for marriage and birth records. Janetta Whitson

Marriage and birth index records are on microfilm at the library and Genealogy Friends of Plano Libraries can do lookups for you for a small donation.

The Genealogy Friends site is not forbidden, but there might be a problem with your server. Or, our web master might be working on the site making it unavailable to you at this time.

We had a problem with a cemetery down in Tenn and I had a funeral director reply to my post. It is illegal to destroy cemeteries. Contact a local funeral director and tell them what's going on and ask what the laws are. They will know what to do. Carolyn

Hi, all. There is an old cemetery in Collin County named Noble Cemetery. It is located in the countryside northwest of McKinney. It is small, is located in some trees in a cornfield, and hasn't been cared for until lately when it seems someone has been doing some clearing and erecting new headstones. I am happy to see that. My question is this: The land the cemetery is on seems to have been sold and is being developed. Does anyone know what steps are being taken to protect the cemetery, and what the new landowner is required by law to do to protect the cemetery? Thanks, S. M. Hitt hitt@flash.net (or nannyhitt@yahoo.com)

I have been a lurker for quite a while. My gg grandmother Mary Bowen (Whaley) Gay died there ca 1870/1880. She was living with her son Edgar and his family, although she sometimes was with her daughter, Sarah E.T. Gay HILL in Lawrence Co MO. They did not move to Collin Co until after 1860, but I am curious if there are any Bowens, Corbitts, Whaleys, Brattens or Gays there in 1860. I am trying to figure out if Edgar moved there to live with his parents relatives from DeKalb Co TN (Bowens, Whaleys, Gays, Corbitts, Brattens). Edgar moved there from Lawrence Co MO. Thanks in advance. Janet Hunter....other Texas names (Gonzales Co area), Hunter, Kennedy, McGinty, Davis, Rayburn...Choates, always Choates.

If anyone has a census of Collin county for 1860, I would like to request a look-up of any BRUCE names to be found there. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Also, does anyone has any sort of mortality schedule for this area? Teresa

1880 soundex census, would locate them, and see all family. order from your local library, or LDS church.
