I visited this cemetery with my wife Ellen on February 28, 2002. This is a private family cemetery. It currently has only one grave.

But it has six stones with names and dates of birth for future use. The cemetery is fenced with brick and wrought iron. It sits back

in the woods from the Osborn home.

"To get to the cemetery from Romance, take Highway 5 south about two and a half miles to Red Hill Road. Turn left and go about

one and three-quarters miles and turn right on a farm road which will go back through the fields about eight-tenths of a mile to a

large beautiful home on the hill. The cemetery is in the woods to the left of the house.

"The owner of the Cemetery Mrs. Carolyn Osborn, went with me to the cemetery and told me who the people are."

I will be posting more burials later. The Searcy Daily Citizen donated all their Micro Film and Ledgers dating

back to 1953. After reviewing them, if I find a death of a person that we do not have I will to add to the

cemetery listings.

There are some graves listed as unmarked that may have had a tombstone set since the listing was made.

I may have missed some graves when I prepared the listing. Some cemeteries are very hard to get an

accurate listing due to how some graves are scattered

The following Abbreviations are used in the listings

.

FM-Funeral home marker DS-Double tombstone TS-Triple tombstone

(Obit)-means that the Historical Society has, or has access to the Obituary for this person.
