    3. Kirk... There are WASSONs buried in two cemeteries that I know of for sure in Sharp County...the Evening Shade Cemetery and one infant buried in the Ware Cemetery at Calamine. There might be others buried in the Ware Cemetery, but if there are, there aren't any stones for them. The cemetery is an old one, however, and graves could have been marked only with stones at the head and foot. It is now part of a cow pasture, and while some work has been done to preserve the stones that are there, cows are still allowed in and topple them over again. : ( The listing for the one in the Ware Cemetery: WASSON, infant (no dates given) daughter of W.S. and M.L. Wasson In the Evening Shade Cemetery there are the following: WASSON, Amanda J., b. 11/27/1847, d. 4/22/1930 WASSON, Anne, b. 12/31/1812, d. 3/4/1892, wife of W.L.

    2. Kirk Wasson - Efortress
    3. Thanks, Are there a book on cemeteries of Lawrence/Sharp counties? All of my Wasson's moved from Calamine to North Little Rock in 1900 and the ones I know of are buried here. Are there any available records on land ownership in 1800's? Thanks, Kirk ----- Original Message ----- From: R.
