John Thomas Graves & Mary Alice Turner Graves - Grant & Perry Counties, AR
Posted by: Carol (ID *****9194) Date: April 22, 2009 at 22:09:42

We are seeking information regarding John Thomas Graves born 4 Jan 1891 Obin, Grant, AR, and died 19 Feb 1918 Perry County, AR.

He was married to Mary Alice Turner (Graves) 30 Apr 1911 in Perry County, AR.

Mary Alice was born in AR about 1896, and died about 1918 in Perry County, AR. Her parents were Franklin Leafate Turner and Lucy Cathryn Lee (Turner).

Both John and Mary died in flu epidemic, leaving three small children - Bart, Burley, and Bessie born 1912, 1913, and 1916 respectively. We are grandchildren of Bart.

We would love any information that could be provided about the family as our grandfather was only 6-7 years old when his parents died, and we would like to know more to honor our grandfather's memory. We know they are buried in the Harmony Cemetery in Perry County, AR. Their graves are marked by "a pile of stones" and would like to locate the exact location in the cemetery so actual markers can be placed to honor therm properly. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
