SIPE SPRINGS, TEXAS (Milam County). Sipe Springs was a rural school community six miles southeast of Rockdale in southeastern Milam County. It was named for some nearby natural springs. In 1903 Sipe Springs had a two-teacher school with sixty-three students. The school was consolidated with the Milano Independent School District in 1931, and by 1941 there was no evidence of the community on county highway maps.
