Post Oak Baptist Church is located on Hwy. 42, close to I-20,
between White Oak and Kilgore. This is a black cemetery &
church with the cemetery directly behind the church. It is a very
interesting cemetery containing many hand carved headstones and
veterans. There are numerous unmarked graves and graves that only
have the funeral home plaques for identification. Read March 25,
