    3. The directions are on that website page. I was trying to be helpful. I'll give it one more attempt. This is on the page that I sent: Russell Cemetery is located 1 1/2 miles West of Gravette, Arkansas on Hwy 72. Terra Server Arial View Has a fence around it to keep out cows. But lot of stones are broken, guess fence wasn't always there? It is very overgrown. Watch out for ticks and poison ivy! -----Original Message----- From: acp [mailto:acpearce@io.com] Sent: Sunday, July 20, 2003 2:11 AM To: ARKANSAS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [ARKANSAS] Anyone have location for Russell Cemetery? I am looking for directions or an exact location. I already own pics. I need the info to enable me to find it again. I was not driving when I took pics in late 1980s. If I had been driving, I would be able to find it today. ;-) :-) acp ----------- Dana Gray wrote: >http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~our21familytree/Cemeteries/Russell % >20Cemetery.html > >The above link is to Russell cemetery photos taken and on line located in a >cow pasture in Arkansas. > > > > >-----Original Message----- >From: Bill Allen [mailto:misterbill@pdq.net] >Sent: Saturday, July 19, 2003 5:36 PM >To: ARKANSAS-L@rootsweb.com >Subject: Re: [ARKANSAS] Anyone have location for Russell Cemetery? > > >Hi acp, > >The USGS site names 113 cemerteries in Benton Co., AR.

    3. My intent was not to be mean to you. I had simply reached the end of my patience with responses that did NOT answer my question, but instead, some OTHER question. The directions were NOT on the webpage we are discussing, UNTIL I contacted the owner (YESTERDAY) and asked if she could remember when and where she took the pics of Russell Cemetery. I told her I had been there in 1989, took pics, was not driving, wanted to return and couldn't remember exactly how to get there (same thing I put in my original query to this list). She updated the website, YESTERDAY evening and emailed me back, telling me she'd added the exact location. When I first looked at the page, it only said "west of Gravette". I already knew that -- having been there and taken pics years before (as stated in my original query). I received many replies sending me to this page, all day yesterday and if the people had just read my original post, instead of flying off to answer, after they'd read only the first sentence, they would have realized -- if one wanted to drive to the place, they'd probably need driving directions AND if I had already taken pics in the cemetery I'd would surely have been there before. The "west of Gravette" listed on THAT website, when my original query was posted, was NOT sufficient info and NOT what I was asking for. And yes, I probably shouldn't, but I DO get very frustrated with people who don't read and/or don't comprehend the question, before rushing to answer it. ;-) I ask VERY few questions on any list, for that very reason. ;-) And when responding to queries by others, I make very sure I read before I post. Saves me a lot of embarrassment. ;-) And if I choose to respond to someone's post anyway, without an answer for them, but with additional information, my response looks something like -- "I don't have the driving directions for San Francisco for you, but I will tell you there's a great bridge there you should try to see while you are there...." acp -------- Dana Gray wrote: >The directions are on that website page.
