Peaceful Rest Cemetery, Milam County, Texas *********************************************************** Submitted by: GG Date: May 2004 Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm *********************************************************** This cemetery is located in the southeast quadrant of Milam Co. To get to this active black cemetery located in Gause off U.S. Hwy 79. At the Coat’s Store, turn onto the small road next to the store and go past the Gause Cemetery (white) and turn left onto Locust St. and at Professor Smith St., turn right and go a short distance to two old white houses on the left side of the road. A sign directs you to the cemetery about 1.5-miles down that lane. Portions of the cemetery are well kept and mowed, however, there are some areas where gravemarkers are covered with overgrowth and brush. The cemetery is surrounded by an old rust barbed and sagging barbed wire fence with a modern chain-link gate with the name of the cemetery overhead.
