Parker Cemetery, Kingston, Madison County, Arkansas *********************************************************** Submitted by: Robert and Rosa Cline Date: 10 Aug 2003 Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm *********************************************************** (also known as Parker-Boydstun Cemetery) "Gone But Not Forgotten" COMPLETED TRANSCRIPTION transcribed on March 28,2001 updated July 25, 2003 Parker Cemetery is located about 3.8 miles north of Kingston. It is located right on Highway 21 It has a chain link fence around it, but it has no driveway or parking place. So you have to park on the side of the road to visit the cemetery. From the road it looks smaller than what it really is. I have added in extra data that I have put in ( ) this data has either came from obits or from people contacting me about that person. Use only as a guideline as I have no means to prove if it is correct or not. I also have headstone pictures of many (and can get the rest) if anyone would like a scanned copy of the stone. I do have a few obits of some of these people...and have since learnt that everyone out there is in one way related to us...distantly. I have added in an * before the names that I've either corrected data for or have added data in for them. If anyone would like to contact us feel free to do so...clinefam@yournet.com Robert and Rosa Cline Nellie Finley Basham * Charles David Boydston * David Boydston * David Carroll Boydston * Manervia Wilkerson Boydston * Paul Boydston Pearl Morris Boydston * William Boydston * Caroline Choate Boydstun * Minerva Jane Boydstun Reeves * Eller Marion Boydstun "Marion" * Robert Boydstun * Susan Boydstun Infant girl Bunch Lovie Bunch Lovie Bunch * Christine Ferrell Parker Grigg Willie Raymond Grigg Aaron Parker Anna Hawkins Parker * Albert Dalton Parker Albert Parker * Albert Willie Parker * Alice Ellen Parker Bell Parker Carl Parker * Dovie Elmira Parker Infant boy Parker Infant girl Parker Infant girl Parker * James Cebern Berry Parker "Jim" Joe Parker * John Aaron Parker "Aaron" John Sidney Parker * Joseph Parker * Joseph Beuregard Parker "Boie" Joyce Whorton Parker * Eliza Kay Stamps Parker "Lizzie" Marrie Parker Onnie Parker Ross Parker * Mary Tennessee Kinnaman Parker "Tennie" * Velma Whorton Parker * William Ross Parker "Willie" Beoey Roggers J.
