Mt Pleasant Cemetery
Partial

Pictures by Etta Withers & Elaine Martin

Take Hwy 135 south off I-20 towards Kilgore......One of the first roads to the right is Mt Pleasant Rd. Turn and go about 1/4 of a mile or less, cemetery is on the right.

This is a fairly large, well kept cemetery, that is still in use. There are many very old headstones, and a lot of unmarked graves.

This cemetery was started in August 2003 by Sharon Pierce and Christian Allen
