Warner Cemetery

Carrollton, Dallas County

Marker Text

In 1852, Robert and Sarah Dean Warner brought their family to Texas from Ireland. As members of the Peters Colony, they acquired land in this area and established a farm. This family graveyard was begun upon the death of Robert Warner, Jr., in 1873. There are a total of 10 marked graves, and all except two are Warner family members. At least one unmarked grave is known to exist. The Warner family and their descendants became leaders in the Carrollton community. Their family cemetery is a reminder of the early period of settlement in the area.
