Hi Aurora and all... There is also the Dunaway Family Cemetery located in what was Lebanon though there are only Dunaway family members buried there. The Heritage Association of Frisco putting a historical marker at that cemetery in the later part of this June. While the Dunaway Cemetery is now located in what they call Frisco. The Bush Cemetery is in a borderline area????....(not sure how much of it is in Frisco proper?)as a Bush descendant explained to me...somewhere near where the Super Target is now located on 121? Think the graves have since been removed to Rowlett Cemetery. I would love to know more about the actual location. The Sonntag/Sontag graves were moved to Bethel Cemetery as you noted (and as in reference to the newspaper article written as the last two were found in recent times) I am pretty sure that the location was as Lebanon Rd. crossed the tollway. The area would have been called Lebanon then. We have a new member in the FGS who is a Sonntag descendant and knows quite a bit about that line...he has some super pics and great stories. FYI: the Zion Cemetery of Frisco/Denton County book is now complete and being sold at the new Frisco Heritage Museum. (Gave up on getting bluebonnet picture this year.)

I posted this question years ago and decided to try again. I have a Susan Nelms Beaty that was the wife of Jesse G. Beaty that died in Peter's Colony around 1845. The story is that she and her infant daughter were buried on the banks of White Rock Creek. I would think it could be near the creek as opposed to on the bank its self. Does anyone know of a cemetery that is located on or near White Rock Creek?
