Pate Cemetery

PATE CEMETERY

Est. ca 1882

Located west of El Dorado, behind a farm off of Guinn Road, on private property

& backs up on the airport in Union County, Arkansas. (June 19, 2002). Guinn Road

runs north off of Hwy. 82 West (aka Magnolia Hwy). When I was there in the fall

of 2002, one road was gated & you could not go any farther. A new fence around

the cemetery was added ca 2005.
