Horton Cemetery
Horton, Delta County, Texas

Lat: 33° 15' 48"N, Lon: 95° 49' 12"W

This cemetery is about 7 miles east of Commerce, TX (Take FM 71 to FM 1531, turn left and cemetery is about 1/2 mile on right) (or from eastbound Hwy. 50 turn right, go abt 6.5 miles and cemetery is on left)

This appears to be the cemetery for the small town of Horton. Judging from the stones it dates back to the 1930s. It is still in use and in very good condition. I did not find out who owns and maintains it.

I walked and read this cemetery on Jan 11, 2007, using my digital camera. This includes all existing and legible stones and markers found on that date.
