North of Van Buren on Highway 59 and North of Figure Five where Hwy 220 West meets 59 on the west, the cemetery is on the east side of Hwy 59. Decoration Day is the fourth Sunday in May.

Many years ago William Pleasant Bassham gave five acres of land as a burying place for the people of the area, with the stipulation that there would never be any charge made to anyone for a burial plot. His farm surrounded the cemetery. The first person buried there was Sarah Woolsey and it is reported that her father originally owned the property. This record of those buried there has been prepared by Carollyn Bassham Guidry, great granddaughter of Wm. Pleasant Bassham and is a work in progress. The work is not complete but all the old graves are listed. This will be updated from time to time with new listings. All listings from 'History In Headstones' are included, as well as any new burials between 1987 through 1999.

cemetery records

A free online library of cemetery records from thousands of cemeteries across the world, for historical and genealogy research.

Clear Digital Media, Inc.

What makes us Different?

Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
