Cemeteries for Gilmore, Fogleman, Tyronza

Surnames: Lyon
Searching the USGS for cemeteries in Crittenden County, I can't find a cemetery for residents of Gilmore, Fogleman, Tyronza. My 2nd great uncle, Benjamin Lyon, is listed in the 1920 census for Fogleman; my great aunt, Nellie Lyon, was born in 1907 Gilmore; my grandmother, Elsie Lyon, was born in 1911 Tyronza. I'm being optimistic I will find my 2nd great uncle and my great-grandfather, William Lyon (died abt 1911-1912), buried near these towns. Does somebody have a suggestion or addresses for cemeteries or funeral homes? I tried Yahoo's yellow pages, too. Thanks for your help.

Phaynen,

There are Lyon family members in Crittenden Memorial Park Cemetery, Marion Arkansas.

I didn't see the names below, but go to Findagrave.com and search for the above cemetery.

My email is danieldx4@hotmail.com.

I grew up in this area, and I will share one piece of info with you. During the timeframe you are referring to, much of this area was either very swampy or flooded. I grew up in Trumann, AR and we did not have cemetery. Most of the residents of that area are buried in Marked Tree, AR. My grandfather, who settled in the area in the very early 1900s told me stories of the groundwater actually pushing coffins out of the ground during intense rain. From my understanding, the only place in the area stable enough for burial was Marked Tree.
