This nonprofit was formed to maintain and improve a 1895 Texas Historic Collinsworth Family Cemetery (.22 acres) established during a smallpox epidemic. The city of Plano considered the cemetery abandoned as late as 2002. This is not a city owned cemetery. Since that time due to the efforts of a few descendant
s, the surrounding HOA, service organizations (Boy Scouts, Garden Clubs) improvements to the cemetery as a whole have been made. This corporation is continuing these efforts in a formal manner, with the primary activity being maintenance such as mowing, trimming, pest control. A secondary activity will be the preservation, stabilization, and cleaning of the remaining stones as a whole, followed by plantings and the extension of an existing gravel path. The marker project is for the cemetery as a whole and should be repeated for decades. This inactive cemetery will never be operated for profit, will never be sold, or have any stock. There are under ten stones remaining of an estimated 25. CFCA is a non profit 501©13 charitable corporation. Effective June 26, 2014 CFCA received IRS Contribution Deductibility ID 31954. All contributions received by CFCA are for the historical cemetery as a whole No goods or services are exchanged in connection with donations.
