HOPEWELL CEMETERY

GEORGE, NEWTON COUNTY, ARKANSAS

"Gone But Not Forgotten"

FULLY TRANSCRIBED AND PHOTOGRAPHED ON NOVEMBER 18, 2006

Original Listing typed up on Nov 26, 2007, by Rosa Cline

This is a COMPLETE listing of people interred at this cemetery. My husband and I went out and photographed all stones at this cemetery. Below is that data. We photographed the unmarked graves marked only with field stones as well.

I have made an alphabetical listing before the actual transcriptions below. Beside each name I have noted a headstone photo ( hd pic ) for that person. Below the alphabetical listing is the actual transcription of the stones. This listing is in the order in which the photos were taken. So it will kind of give you an idea of stones beside one another

If you would like me to share with you, or you share extra data please feel free to contact me. However, please have the respect to not contact me to complain when I don’t have what you request. I will be more than happy to share with you what information I have on the people listed below . If you would like to send me data on your family or friends buried at this cemetery, I would be more than happy to accept and add the data into my listings. Please feel free to contact me.

I hope this listing helps these people to always be remembered. To try and help folks to always be remembered when they have gone on before us is the main reason I do what I do. And helping folks find family or friends in the process is a good plus as well.

While we were there we did knowtist MANY graves marked with native stone, and the caretaker of the cemetery which lives on the property close to the cemetery. He doesn’t have history of who all is buried there either. So if anyone has ever been told through oral family history of people buried here please let me know and I’ll make that note.
