Cemeteries
These cemetery listings are contained in a book titled Desha
County, Arkansas Cemetery Records.
These lists were compiled by the men and women of Desha County in 1968
and 1969 and published by the late Mrs. Marion McKinney Stroud. Desha County Historical Society President
Michael Jones has graciously given me permission to reprint them here, for
which I am forever grateful. I am also
grateful to the men and women of Desha County who took their time to list all
the names. I will transcribe the lists
from the book, post and update them as quickly as possible.
On the
first page of the publication is a picture of Gordon Thurman of Rohwer, county
surveyor; George P. Kelley, secretary of the Desha County Historical Society
and amateur archaeologist, and Gerald Hobson of Rohwer, woodsman, surveyor and
history buff standing around the tombstone of Henry Smith and his wife, Cecilia
Gibson Smith near the site of Napoleon.
Napoleon was swallowed by the river in the 1870s.
