HUTTIG CEMETERY

Huttig, Union County, Arkansas

0482 HUTTIG.jpg

I surveyed this cemetery March 19, 2014.

I believe this is an African-American cemetery,

Although, years earlier while searching for it,

I was told that there were blacks and whites

buried here (in the Huttig Cemetery). None of the

names match the names from an earlier survey of Huttig

Cemetery done by the Union County Genealogical Society,

James T. Mullins.

 

Evidently, there are one or two more small cemeteries in or around Huttig

that folks refer to as the Huttig Cemetery. I have been trying to find it for years.

*The “Huttig Cemetery I was looking for was Est. ca 1906.

The problem is, if I ask a local, they don't seem to know.  The older canvass

done of Huttig Cemetery by James T. Mullins, in October 1991, found  in Book 2

of the Cemetery books, did not contain any of the names I found when I

did my canvass in March 2014.

*I have included them in my listing below, noting they are from this

old 1991 listing, by coloring the names in this color.

 

*Of interest:

*Noted several graves where a fire had been built on top of them?

*The Blake family's  graves are all in a row.  Most of the graves had water

trapped in the concrete borders around each grave.

*The cemetery appears to be 2 to 3 acres in size.

*The ground, which is covered with grass, and appears to be dry is deceiving.

Some places are fine but others are like stepping onto a piece of foam. 

*Be careful where you park your car.

for a visit with their daughter, Mrs. Howell and her family. The Howell home was located five miles

east of Huttig, at Old Landing on the Ouachita River. The fire occurred at 6:00 am, Saturday morning,

March 24th.  G.W. Howell died Sunday morning, March 25th from the severe burns to his body & face.

Mr. Howell arose to start a fire in the room where the Barlows were sleeping & was using gasoline

from a can, when it exploded, throwing burning oil all over the Barlow’s and their beds where they were

sleeping, causing the room to become a raging inferno. Mrs. Howell and their two small children

escaped the fire unharmed.  The Barlow’s had been here for about a week at the time of the fire.

Day By Day We Smile And Reminisce   About The Good Times And Laughs And Laughs

We Will Miss   Often Times We Wonder If You're Okay   But We Just Pray That God
Show Us The Way   It's Sad To Know You Are Not Here   Close To Our Hearts, We Hold

You Dear   We Want You To Know You Were Truly Loved   We Can Feel Your Presence

As We Look Above   You Earned Your Wings On A Special Day   So Go Home My Angel,

Fly Away   Sometimes We May Question Why     But You Have Gone To A Place Of Eternal

Life    Be Patient, For We Will Reunite When The Time Is Due    You Are Truly An Angel

Gone Too Soon   Love Always;   Family And Friends

*There are at least a dozen or more marker, that have NO data on them and or they

are broken & illegible. The barrier you see across the backside is similiar to what

is used along road/highway construction.  It is in the area where many of the Blake

family graves stand in water.  On the other side is just a big open field/lot that

appears to be some sort of community ball field or some other recreation field. I did

not approach the barrier to get a better view of what was on the other side. The sign,

visible below between two trees, faces the street/ road that runs along the one side of

it and the field adjoining it.  (April 2014)
