Leroy Blair of the White County Historical Society found this old cemetery January 13, 2003, after receiving information from a

resident of the area. The cemetery is located about a quarter-mile back in a pasture field across the road from 268 Pine Creek

Road in Velvet Ridge.



Following is Blair’s report: "I did not find any graves with names on markers. But there appears to be about six marked with field

stones. They are in a thicket that is so dense you cannot see. About 20 feet to the left there appears to be three graves covered

with rocks. Between the two areas are some depressions that appear to be graves."

I have been told that this cemetery has been cleaned since I was there

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
