Phyllis, I am a trustee of the "Old Harrisburg Cemetery" in Harrisburg. This cemetery dates back to about 1850 and is owned by the United Methodist Church in Harrisburg. It is a beautiful old cemetery inside the city limits. I have a directory of all of the "marked" graves in this cemetery and would be glad to help look for people buried there. This cemetery is about 10 acres in size. There is a newer, larger cemetery just outside the city limits. I do not have a list of people buried there. I do have a census of the old Bolivar cemetery three miles north of Harrisburg. This also is a large old cemetery located at the site of the original county seat of Poinsett County. A new census of the Farm Hill cemetery, located south of Harrisburg is almost ready for publication.

He had a wife Alta Barker Woods, and a daughter (Sylvia/Alta) who married M. H. Thompson, of Harrisburg. The obit was in 1932. Is there an address for the Harrisburg cemetery, or anyone who would take a photo of the stone for me? I need more information re: his wife and daughter. Will share photos.
