File formatted by Karen Mabry Rice. ===================================================================================================== ===================================================================================================== This cemetery is located off Ouachita City Road just past the Ouachita Cemetery on the left of a private road going into a trailer park. It is about 15 feet off the driveway into the park. It i s barely visible from the driveway, because the area is grown up. It does have a fence around it with a gate. ===================================================================================================== ===================================================================================================== Note: Surveyed with the assistance of Ron Spillers and his father, Cona Spillers. Thanks to them for showing us this cemetery which had eluded us for the past year. Without their help and assistance, we would have never located this one. They told us that the cemetery had been located on the Thompson Place, where the family residence had been located until it burned. After this happened, the Thompson family moved to Marion, and there are now only 3 visible graves in the fenced-in cemetery. It had grown up in trees and Vines, but Ron and Cona cleared this so that we could record the information from the 3 markers. ===================================================================================================== ===================================================================================================== LAST FIRST MID.
