Benge cemetery is located to the South and West of Jacksonville, Texas, On County Road 3111, 2-3 miles south of the Antioch communi­ty on the left.  It is very small in a heavily wooded area.  A giant old cedar tree marks the proba­ble spot at which the cemetery began. Many of the older more vulnerable stones have been broken but most have been replaced with newer stones.  The stone for Lola Hill is broken in many pieces and hasn't been replaced.
