Add PhotosBackground: John Mims purchased his first land at Fairfield, in Freestone County, in 1855, out of the Redin Gainer Survey
at the southeast edge of the townsite. To this beginning of 277 acres, he added until he owned approximately 3 sections, or about 1900 acres, extending nearly to what is now the Post Oak Community Church, some 3 miles southeast of the county seat. This land was described in the deeds as "on the headwaters of Kecchi creek", but in fact today is called Mims creek.
Cemetery Background: Started in 1880 with the death of Mollie Lane, John Mim's daughter.
Location: Located on a hillside, near the northern end of the farm [Hill Polled Hereford Ranch], now a pasture, is a small cemetery which is grown up with very large trees inside an ornamental iron fence with no one taking care of it.
