Cemeteries of Texas Coordinator: Dolores I. Bishop

 This cemetery is just inside Collin County near the Crossroads Cemetery also in Collin County. Many people living in Fannin County were buried here. Mount Carmel or Hampton Cemetery is just west southwest of the Desert Store not quite a mile northwest of the intersection of Hwy 160 and State Hwy 121 straight behind a house. The cemetery is in terrible shape and there are many unmarked graves.

  The book “Murder at the Corners” by Gladys Ray in 1957 states: “John Baldock and Dow Nance were buried in one grave in the Old Mt. Carmel Cemetery west of Desert Creek”. They were part of the Peacock side of this famous feud.

    Elizabeth Ann Butler – This stone and Ransom’s were moved to Burns Cemetery near Trenton.
