Locklin Cemetery

San Gabrielbr/Milam County, Texasbr/30 40.747' N 97 11.513' Wbr/Directions: Start at the intersection of FM-486 and FM-908. Go .5 miles north on FM-486. Turn left (west) on unpaved road and go .1 milesbr/ br/Text: Abigale McLennan Fokes acquired a Mexican land grant here in 1835. Peter M. Mercer established a blacksmith shop in this area in the early 1840s. His burial in 1844 is the first recorded in this cemetery. Fokes later set aside this site for cemetery purposes. The cemetery is believed to be named for the extended family of early area settler William Lawson Locklin. It presently contains about 400 burials including many of this area's frontier settlers and their descendants and veterans of the Texas revolution and Republic of Texas Army. It continues to serve the area.
