Also if you don't find the information on this transcribtion look at www.findagrave.com for the person listed and there may be more information there for them. I am trying to update this about every other month...I will put * beside those that have been added since the last update. I live too far away from Jonesboro to actually do any look ups... these listings are made from either obits or data given to me by other family or other researchers. I will be more than happy to share with you what information I have on the people listed below, but I can not do physical look ups.
