Lee County, Arkansas Cemeteries

Soudan Cemetery

Soudan, Arkansas

Location: Take Hwy 79 north toward Memphis. Take first left at Soudan and follow road behind the farm buildings. The cemetery is across the field from the old store building on the edge of the woods on the bayou.

Nancy Apple and Pat Audirsch surveyed this cemetery on November 12, 2005. On March 9, 2006 Lawrence Brooks sent a list of people that he has personal knowledge of being buried here. Originally, I had this cemetery listed as Peter’s Cemetery, however Lawrence grew up in Soudan and says that it is called Soudan Cemetery. Mt. Zion Church used this cemetery for many years. There are headstones located under the hill that dates back to the 1800’s. At one time Soudan had three cemeteries, but the other two are now used as fields. Lawrence was told that the cemetery was once an Indian burial ground. If you have any further information about this cemetery, please contact me.

If you know of anyone else buried here, and would like to add their name, please contact me. I can also create a link for you to any of these names if you find someone that belongs to your family. The information presented is as correct as possible, however you may want to verify its accurateness.
