The ROGERS CEMETERY is divided into a number of sections: Rogers, Callison, Maple, Pottersfield, & Babyland or Dogwood as it was originally called. The number applies to the plot and other numbers to the site of grave. I do not know of any Block A or Section P's. If you are looking for someone, stop in at the office. Those friendly gentlemen will be able to lead you right to where you are wanting. Sometimes, unmarked graves do not show up as "unmarked graves" on their records, just who is buried there.

Just off the top of my head I'm guessing instead of sections being named Block A or Section P, they may have given names to the various areas/wild of the cemetery. Like I said, this is just a wild guess. > > Check out the Benton County information at this link: http://www.rootsweb.com/~arbenton/ It appears some are the areas are still "works in progress", but you may find some information that helps.
