I have a copy of the Clay County, Arkansas cemetery books. It does have the dates for Thomas Chambers in the Corning Cemetery, Section 10, 9/18/1858 to 11/5/1895. The words "Husband" is on the tombstone. I don't have a picture of the tombstone, but hopes this helps. There are numerous places that you can apply for a death certificate.

Hi, My name is Jan Porterfield, and I am the daughter of Ronald Perry BRIDGES and Betty Jane DRILLING. My cousin, Candy HILL, is looking for a picture of the Bridges home that was by the school. At some point after our grandparents sold it, it was called "The Bridges Museum". The house was moved (I think to Neelyville) and later demolished. She would like to have a watercolor commissioned of the old house. Does anyone have a picture of it? Thanks in advance. Jan Bridges Porterfield
