Gum Springs Cemetery also referred to as the Carson Cemetery. This area was known as Carson, which was the name of the school, church and store. There was a Baptist church there and the name Gum Springs came from the only reliable source of wash water. It tended to ‘gum’ up with soap.

The cemetery is located on CR 3670, signs on 1396.
