A little history of Harmony Cemetery

Harmony Primitive Baptist Church was formerly located near the intersection of Old
Harmony Road and Buddy Neill Road just to the northeast of its present site.  The
new church-house was constructed in 1952.  Prior to its being relocated, most
burials from the church were held at Pratt Cemetery. James Lee Arnold of the
Harmony Community donated the land for the new church building and cemetery in the
early 1950s.  The first burial here was Youngie LaFayette/Fate Arnold who was the
brother of James Lee.  Their parents, Joel Arnold and Sarah Paris Arnold are
buried at Pratt Cemetery and James's wife Lockie Demarious Maynard is also buried
at Pratt.  However, James decided in later years to be buried at Harmony, the land
where he was born, next to his brother Youngie.

                                 A TRIBUTE OF LOVE

                   Upon this soil our grandfathers were born to be
                                   Arnold brothers
                             Youngie Fate and James Lee

                     Together they lived as they went on their way
                                and together they rest
                                 until that great day.

                      With this land James Lee was the one who gave
                       within this land Youngie Fate was the first
                                    to be laid.
