Arkansas Cemeteries
Wilson Cemetery
Faulkner County, Arkansas
Submitted by Sondra
Johnson
This is a small
cemetery located off Highway 225 about 7 miles east of Greenbrier. In 1980, it was surveyed by Harley and Dora
Henderson and Vivian Johnson of the Faulkner County Historical Society. There are 37 legible markers and
approximately 20 to 25 graves marked with fieldstones. In the large concrete slab is a hand-etched
concrete marker that reads “Walls by Mollie.”
There are also two rock wall enclosures about 3 feet high which
presumably contain graves. The concrete
marker for Francis McCrackin was written on three lines: “Francis,” “McCrac,” and “kin,” leading the
1980 surveyers to believe it was the grave of Francis “McCray.” Wilson Cemetery was surveyed and
photographed on November 8, 2002, by Glenna Shumate and Sondra Johnson. – Cemetery Photo
