OLD PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH CEMETERY
EST. ca 1845
Washington & Locust Street , downtown El Dorado
(about a block south
of Main Street), Union County, Arkansas.
I visited this cemetery November 18, 2002. Many of the markers are gone
or beyond being readable
*Due to the fact that so many of the old
markers are no longer legible & or gone, in June 2009,
using earlier 1962 survey info from the
Union County Genealogical Society & a survey done
by Ralph O. Weldon in 1998, I have made
corrections & up dates to my survey below,
& noted (*) those used.
Updated July 2014. Last updated September 2017.
