WALLACE FAMILY CEMETERY

aka CLARK FAMILY CEMETERY

 Est. ca 1845

This is one of the oldest cemeteries in Eastern Union County, Arkansas. 

Most of the graves are obliterated.  The few listed below have marble vaults. 

The land where this cemetery is located was originally owned by Colonel

Robert Wallace.  Both blacks and whites are buried there. 

Whites are buried on the left (North) side of the road,

while blacks are buried on the right (South) side of  the road.

However, no whites have been buried there in about one hundred years.  

Located northeast of the old community, New London.   June 18, 2002. 

Canvass date or canvasser unknown.

I copied out of Union County Cemetery books, Volume 4,

for the purpose of posting the list.  April 20, 2004
