Thanks to Ruby for this information!
This is an old African-American cemetery that is located on the 100 acres owned by
Aubrey Sanders. This is private property and no access readily available.
There is only an old barb wire gate and no place to park a car on the side
of the road. This is located North of Big Sandy and South of Gilmer,
Upshur Co., TX. Go North on Hwy 155 out of Big Sandy, turn West on
FM1002 until you get to Red Maple. Follow Red Maple until you come to Red
Cedar. Turn right on Red Cedar, go about 1/4 mile and the small barbed wire
gate will be on the right. This cemetery is almost destroyed. The land has
now been logged out (2004) and I do not know what shape these stones are
in. About 1988 we were leasing this land for a deer lease and I went through
this cemetery writing down all the graves that I could find. Some of the
stones were turned over and buried beneath the sand and pine needles. There
were several Funeral Home markers, but I could not read them...................Ruby
