A Visit to the Cemetary

I mentioned the other day that we went to a cemetary out in the woods while we were in SW Arkansas the other week. We wrote down the names and dates on all the monuments that we found and Mike is doing some research to see who is laid to rest there.

We were not able to tell how large the cemetary was because of all the brush and overgrowth. A small section of the cemetary is inside a fenced area. It appears to be the Ferguson family - 4 monuments.

Edmund J Bacon - one of the largest monuments

The emblem on the top of the Edmund J Bacon monument.
Yes, this is exactly what it looks like.

Some of the headstones were in bad shape.
