METCALF GRAVE
Scott County, Arkansas
Go North from Waldron on Highway 71 about 7 miles to just past the Packsaddle community. Just past the Packsaddle Church, turn right on Elam Tr., a gravel road. Go about a mile and the road will fork: take the left fork, a dirt road, and go about a mile. The cemetery is in a field on the left side of the road. It appears to have been long abandoned. There are at least 12 graves with only fieldstone markers; two of them are rock covered graves. Only the one inscribed tombstone pictured below. Surveyed and a digital photograph made of the tombstone on February 29, 2004 by Bob & Delaine Edwards.
