Philpott Cemetery

Very difficult to locate; it is located on FM 489 (Freestone to Dew Road), 1.3 miles from the Salem Missionary Baptist Church and Cemetery. From Teague; take Hwy 80 to Freestone. Go left on FM 489 and if you reach Salem Missionary Baptist Church you have gone too far. There will be two houses on the left 1.3 miles before reaching Salem Baptist. The cemetery is 2 city blocks from the road. Go through the gate to the right of the house and follow a cattle drive. The cemetery is on the left in a clump of trees. It is fenced in barbed wire and cyclone fence.
