Gates Hill Cemetery

Fannin County, Cemeteries of TX

Submitted by Susan Hawkins hawkins@texoma.net

Cemeteries of Texas Coordinator: Dolores I. Bishop

For more information concerning Fannin County contact Susan Hawkins, CC Fannin County.

Gates Hill Cemetery is the main African American Cemetery for Bonham until recently. Almost everyone is buried in Willow Wild today, though there is a new section of Gates Hill. It is located at the south end of town right on Hwy 78 south. Originally covering a larger area the oldest section of the cemetery is actually under the highway, though some graves were moved. The majority of the markers were wooden and all of those long gone. Grass fires, time and wood rotting away left most of the graves unmarked.

The cemetery land was the corner of the Henry Gates farm originally, naming the slope used for picnics and gatherings. During that time the white cemetery was Inglish Cemetery. Sheriff Gates gave the land for the cemetery for African American families of Bonham. It is unknown how early it was used but it is my guess it was the 1850’s – 60’s.

There are many depressions where graves are - many of them with iris planted in them. Still I was glad to find so many still readable. There were half dozen stones that were over on their faces from vandalism. We were unable to turn the stones over due to how large they were.

The addition of over 40 identifications of unmarked graves are death records, funeral home records and newspaper articles. I have kept a running list of additions that grows so if you don’t find someone check back in a few months and perhaps I have found more information. If you have any to report please email me.
