Skinner Cemetery

Pilot Point, Denton County, TX

 

Skinner Cemetery in Pilot Point is all but abandoned these days.  It is a badly overgrown space, choked in weeds.  Sadder still, several years ago, some eager but ill-informed folks decided to try and clean up the space.  Many of the markers were moved from their positions over graves and piled along the fences in order to make room for a backhoe or small bulldozer.  Once things were cleared out, no one knew where to put the piled markers.  A few large markers remain standing over the correct graves.  Most markers are still found along the fences in a jumble.  One fenced in area is said to be the burial spot of infants who died at the home for unwed mothers that used to be nearby.
