    1. [AGS] Wilmington, Union County, Arkansas
    2. Hello All, I posted to the Union County, AR. mailing list and inquired about African American Cemeteries in that county, namely the town of Wilmington. I was informed that Wilmington no longer existed..I didn't know that. Anyway, I guess now, I'm looking for information on old Wilmington now known as Urbana. My GG Grandparents and family moved there before the 1880 census (they came from Union Parish, LA.) and it seems they (GG Grandparents) may have died in that county. Names are James (AKA John) and Harriet Calbert (Calvert). A number of their children appear on the 1900 Bradley County, AR. census but not James and Harriet, who I may add would have been in their 80s by that time. Anyway, does anybody know of any old African American Churches and/or cemeteries in that part of the county (Union) during that time period? I'm trying to determine where they may have been buried. Any and all help will be appreciated. Thanks and have a wonderful Wednesday! Dena Calbert-Jordan Contra Costa County California
