Historical Cemetery - Sadly Neglected

This is the Poor Farm Cemetery located in Bentonville, AR. This cemetery is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Sadly the only thing being taken care of in this cemetery is the entrance and the fence. As you can see by these photos. But it does have an interesting story.

  3. Where in Bentonville is this located. I plan on being in Bentonville Mat 12 and 13 2019. I have a strong feeling my great grandfather Fredrick H. Mayfield may be buried there.
