Old Lebanon Cemetery, Hill County, Texas To get to Old Lebanon Cemetery - take FM 1304 exit off IH 35. Turn west. Follow the road to Spiveyís Corner (I think it was 6-10 miles from IH 35 to the curve in the road). The main road will take a sharp curve to the right but stay on the old portion of the road. Take a left onto a dirt road or path that will go through an irrigated cotton field. Itís a public access road so shouldnít be gated. Follow the dirt path to a clump of trees. Youíll come to a wire gate across the path that youíll have to open and close behind you to keep the cattle from going through. A short drive from the wire gate will bring you to the gate for the cemetery. The Old Lebanon Church was originally near the cemetery but it burned some years ago and is no longer visible. The cemetery is just a short distance from the Smithís Bend area of the Brazos River at the edge of Hill County (Bosque County is just across the river).
