Holly Grove Cemetery, Beauregard Parish Louisiana Submitted by Evelyn Cole Date: July 1997 ************************************************ Copyright.

Doty and Evelyn E. Cole February 12, 1993 This is a very small cemetery surrounded by woods and enclosed by an old-time post-and-wire fence. There is a tiny country church on the site. It is located just off Newlin Cemetery Road to the north, on the west side of the railroad tracks. You can hear the lonesome whistle of a train at times. There are many unmarked graves and sign of several "lost" graves. Many of the tombstones are home-made and can no longer be read. Several of the graves have had flowers and/or shrubs planted---locust trees, lillies, bridal wreath, etc. This could be a very picturesque cemetery with a tiny bit of maintenance. ================================================================================ [Home made tomb:Suffer Little Children\Come Unto Me SON---d-NOV 25 1952] BEASILY, JOHNNY FEB 1917 MAR 23 1967 [sp-ok] BEASLEY, FRANK NOV 23 1953 age 73 [OUR BEACON] BROWN, LULA MAY 8 1870 AUG 20 1933 COLLIENOR, EUGINA JAN 9 1974 DEC 13 1978 D., [L.D.] DENTON, LILLIE DEC 24 1894 NOV 25 1965 DENTON, WILLIE JUN 1 1886 MAR 20 1966 DOYLE, JENNIE MAR 26 1905 APR 9 1971 ELLISON, ED ---NOV 18 1942--- MM-La Pvt 1 Cl 508 Engrs FORD, ADA LEE JAN 20 1897 DEC 26 1961 HILL, RUTH D JAN 26 1977 MAR 24 1978 JONES, LESTER LEON FITZGERALD KENNEDY ---OCT 15 1965--- PRATER, BABY WARD PRATER OCT 29 1941 OCT 30 1941 PRATER, ELIJAH b-STARKS, La d-DEC 20 1933 -MACEDONIA age 77 WEATHEAL, DORSEY MAXEIR d-FEB 2 1938 WILLIAM, JOHN d-JUL 15 1934 ================================================================================
