Lee County, Arkansas Cemeteries

Oak Forrest Cemetery

Oak Forrest, Arkansas

Location: This cemetery is located on Hwy 121 east of Moro.

This list was compiled and submitted by Mary Anderson on May 17, 2004. Additional markers were submitted on July 24, 2005 by Libby Hobbs, and Mary added some more names and 1 photo on November 26, 2005. This is a listing of all readable markers. There may be additional graves which never had markers or for which markers have been destroyed, but we have no way of identifying them. You may locate records to show burial without names being on this list. Any such findings would be welcome to update this list.

Wanda Ridge contributed names and dates to the list on April 26, 2006 from an old inventory of some Lee County cemeteries that was published in the Arkansas Family Historical in December 1976. There were many names in that old list that were not on this list originally. After 30 years, many of the stones have probably disappeared or have been destroyed.

If you know of anyone else buried here, and would like to add their name, please contact me. I can also create a link for you to any of these names if you find someone that belongs to your family. The information presented is as correct as possible, however you may want to verify its accurateness.

* Information taken from various cemetery books

** No Marker – information was submitted by person noted

Please support the preservation of these records and cemeteries.

Thank you.
