Hays County’s most recently recognized (the first in at 
least 15 years) and documented Historic Texas Cemetery, 
the Burns Sons’ Gravesite, was officially re-consecrated 
in a Saturday, March 7, 2009, ceremony on the Rocking P 
Ranch south of Dripping Springs.  Luther Ulmer Burns 
(March 2, 1878—August 5, 1879) and Carl Sydney Burns 
(February 15, 1881—February 16, 1881) share a tombstone 
enclosed by a small rock fence on the ranch currently 
owned by Scott and Pam McAfee.

Scott did the research on the Burns Sons’ Gravesite, a 
history rolling back to the site’s early Hays County 
landowners. The Texas Historical Commission has officially 
designated the site as historic and the official state 
marker has been placed at the site. Approximately 35 
people attended the re-consecration, the Hays County 
Historical Commission represented by Jim and Luanne Cullen.
