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.
