This cemetery is fenced with a wire fence and has white-plank entrance. It covers 1 acre of land. A sign over the gate says, "Horn Cemetery." The double gate is kept locked. There are open areas in the cemetery and numerous trees. It is very well maintained.
The first burial was early in 1872 for a baby of Mildred Horn Weeks. There is no marker for it either. The cemetery was started by W. H. Horn, Sr., father of R. C. Horn, although he did not make a deed for it. Ezell Stepp is buried here in an unmarked grave. He was the last hanging vicitm in Collin County, Nov. 17, 1922.
