Relocated Cemeteries
Marion Co, AR

When Bull Shoals Lake was built in 1948-1950 many cemeteries were relocated by the Corp of Engineers.
The following is a list of the cemeteries where remains were relocated.
If anyone has better directions to these cemeteries please
let me know.Is anyone willing to go and walk one of these cemeteries? It would be nice if we could add the information from the tombstones to the lists of names.
If you are interested I will send you a list of names that were relocated to these cemeteries sorted in grave number order.
