I have heard of this cemetery and had the same reaction.  Did some research and
can't remember what I found so it must NOT have been much.  Obit for Lee Miller
CothranI is so familiar - must have read before too - maybe that caused me to
look up the cemetery. Seemed odd that he was born in TX, died in NV, and buried
in AR.  He would have to have allied family lines in AR. Wife Susan lived in
Blytheville but that is a military base and maybe 150 miles to Pineville. Wonder
what Susan's maiden name was and she might have been AR connection?
Seems like this was about the time I was sifting through census and found some
Harnons that solved a mystery parents of children living with my GGF Bookout.Sam
W. Harmon m. Mary Ester Bookout (GGF's daug)His mother is Lena Lavon Hammond
Cothran? wonder if that is a typo and should be Harmon?  I remember having that
same thought when I found Hammonds on census.
Sorry I don't remember more. - Marsha

I tried searching SSDI and Military records and found nothing.
Of coarse he is the only one listed in this cemetery.
