Gibson City Cemetery serves Gibson, the seat of rural Glascock County, and grew out of the little town's two church burial grounds. The Methodist church cemetery and the adjoining Gibson First Baptist cemetery were gradually merged into a single municipal burying ground, which is why the site still carries the alternate names of the Methodist and First Baptist Church cemeteries. Set behind the old church grounds, it now holds more than 600 recorded graves.
