Directions:  The small Paupers Cemetery is located behind Lake Buhlow in Pineville, 
and is currently owned by the Rapides Parish Police Jury.  To reach the site, take 
US Hwy. 71 North from Alexandria (cross OK Allen Bridge), turn left at Buhlow Airport 
sign (at foot of railroad overpass).  Go exactly 1.0 mile and turn right just before 
the gate to the Recreation Park.  Go .2 miles on this dirt road and take the right 
fork.  Continue .2 mile and cross railroad track.  Directly ahead in a grove of pine 
trees and newly graded area are four blue crosses (appear to be metal).  These crosses, 
in a row facing the driveway, are attached to their metal posts similar to those used 
for road signs.  Tombstone inscriptions were recorded from left to right in May 1995 
by Mary Parker Partain and grandson, Christopher Clay.
