SEVIER COUNTY:
WRIGHT CEMETERY

If you have any cemetery records you would like to share or find and error; please email me HudsonK@hughes.net. Please be sure to list the subject area "Sevier County" so I will not overlook it by mistake. Please be patient with this project - I live in Ok. not Ar. So my trips to work the cemeteries have to come between family (kids live in Tn.), work (2 businesses), websites (5 counties), genealogy (if I remember correctly I am working on both mine and my husbands), & all other normal activities.Thank you.

In 2006 it was brought to my attention that an individual in Sevier County had all the stones removed from this cemetery and placed in other cemetery's. Without taking inventory of the cemeteries I would have no idea where the stones are now located. The bodies were not removed from the cemetery. Another individual is trying to get funds for a memorial marker to be placed at this cemetery.

"Feb 27 2007 the Wright Cemetery monument was placed. This is the headstone that Mary Mills Jackson raised money for, and all her hard work and effort has finally resulted in a beautiful monument that brings dignity and respect back to the people who are buried there. It sits perfectly on top of a little knoll, right between two graves that have lost their headstones." Teri Buster reported and sent photos of the monument Which can be viewed at Photos of Sevier Co on this Sevier Co. website.
