Avon School about 1917 The only people I know are in the front row far right is Robert Clarence Stell and the third person to the left (in white dress)is Randi Stell his sister. They are the children of James Arthur and Minnie (Stephens) Stell. Randi would later marry Richard Munn and Clarence would marry Nixie (Babe) Brown and later Bennie Hunt. I base the date of 1917 on Randi's birth which was in 1907 and she appears to be about 10 years old, and Clarence was born in 1910 and he appears to be about 7 years old. My mother-in-law Goldie (Stephens) Wilson, 92, who attended school there confirmed that it is the Avon school building.This photo was provided by Anthony Stell, son of Clarence Stell and Nixie Hunt and was submitted by Larry Parks

Taken around 1900; came down to me from John Degroot who was a brickmason, did a lot of work around Haworth, Ok and looks like he did at least one job in Dequeen.

Wright Cemetery Monument Placed Feb 2, 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. Mary Mills Jackson on the right, and the man on the left is one of the owners of the company that made and placed the stone. (Background to this event haven taken place: 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. The bodies were not removed from the cemetery. I had taken inventory of this cemetery Jan 1999..which you will find in the cemetery links on this website. Kathy Stokes Hudson) Monument picture 2; (The other photos are pictures of the flat stones that remain in the cemetery. There is also a photo of the footstone of Charles D. Wright, which somehow survived the years, and is located a few feet in front of the new monument.)
