Liberty Cemetery

Near Dry Fork, Newton/Carroll County Line, Arkansas

"Gone But Not Forgotten"

Submitted Feb 1, 2003, by Rosa Cline

Updated November 21, 2007

 

This is a PARTIAL  listing of people interred at this cemetery. I have begun to fully transcribe this cemetery a little at a time and as time permits.

I have obits for some of them, if anyone would like a copy. I have made an alphabetical listing before the actual transcriptions below.

Beside each name I have noted if I have an obit ( obit) , a headstone photo ( hd pic) , or an actual photo for that person ( pic )

or an article about their life or death ( art ). If you have found my name with a note of having an obit on a previous listing

 I can not guarantee I still have it unless it is noted below. I still have lots of things I’ve not found and added in. But I can not

guarantee anyone copies of anything I have, but I will share with you’ll what I have. So 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 trying to update this listing as I have time for, and when I do I will put

an “*” beside the newest data entered. (Even if the name has already been there from a listing before if I have * beside I have added data or corrected data there.)

 

I will be more than happy to share with you what information I have on the people listed below, but I cannot do physical look ups.

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.
