MIDWAY CEMETERY, COLEMAN COUNTY, TEXAS
To reach the Midway Cemetery go south on the dirt road from Goldsboro taking a left on the first dirt road for 1.7 miles, then a right for .6 miles, then a left for 1.3 miles.
In 1890, four acres of land were bought from M. M. Givens by trustees Bryant Porch, R. P. Wright, and A. S. Coughran. Even though this tract was referred to as the "Post Oak Grave Yard," we believe this was the Midway Cemetery (Coleman County deeds - Volume 31, page 71).
It is a well-kept cemetery with
a modern chain link fence, with a gate on the west side. Only the
north half is in use at this time. There are a number of metal and
wood stakes marking lots. There are roads running between every few
rows for access. Roads have not been indicated, nor have family lot
curbings. The markers were read in a snake fashion, beginning at
the southwest corner of the north half. Some family lots were separated
in reading by rows.
