Here you will turn left onto the Central-Basin Road, now go south for another 7.3 miles. The Gibson Cemetery will be on your right at the top of a small hill. It is surrounded by a chain link fence and is in very good condition. There are several unmarked graves in this cemetery, one being that of Mr. Dave Gibson. It is told he was buried in the center of the cemetery and a small Magnolia tree was planted at the head of his grave. That magnolia tree now is about 36 inches in diameter. I was told this by Mrs. Judy Goff, and she also said that they were planning on putting a marker for Mr. Gibson by this tree. The cemetery is owned and maintained by the family and some members of the families of those buried there. There was one Spanish American War Veteran in the cemetery. The cemetery was walked by Jimmy trussell on the 10th of December 2007, information was taken from all legible temporary grave markers and headstone inscriptions. Mrs. Goff stated that they require a marker on each grave , that's the way it should be (no more unmarked graves).
