From Denton TX take I-35W to US Hwy. 380 west, to FM 2622 south, to Old Stony/Stoney Road west to cemetery gate. Daina Rodgers Jordan, Nancy Cleere Rodgers, & Edith Thatcher Cleere gathered this list May 18, 1997. New marker was added in 2001. Every effort was made to accurately list each and every headstone, some were in bad condition and others had deteriorated to such a degree that white crosses were placed at the grave, unfortunately, with no name. There are about 52 such crosses. All information that was readable has been included here and listed in the order that it appeared on the tombstone. Information in brackets [ ] is additional info. that does NOT appear on the tombstone. http://www.geocities.com/moonspinner.geo/StonyCem.html ************************************************************ Carl inf son of W.D. & Minnie R.
