STRONG CEMETERY
Est. ca 1906:
This cemetery is located on
the outskirts of the town of Strong, Arkansas in Union County.
Go about one mile south on
Hwy. 129(aka Oakland Road) from the intersection of State Hwy. 82 in Strong.
The entry to the cemetery will
be to your right & just ahead is the intersection of Hwy. 275(aka Huttig
Hwy.)
I originally surveyed this
cemetery on January 9th & 10th, 2003. Updated April 2006, June 2009 from
obituaries. New canvass of
cemetery made in June 2011, along with the collaboration of Ms. Bender.
*Last update
June 2019.
Once again, Ms. Bender was
gracious enough to collaborate with me,
making my update job much
easier.
I have tried to the best of my
ability to get everyone, however,
there is no guarantee that
someone was not missed.
I mention this, because this
will be the my last update, for the
Strong cemetery.
*Note:
at the end of this list of burials & the few pictures, is an article about
the
tornado
that struck Strong in 1927, killing at least 23 people. The list of names are
given. I have also marked some of the victims who
are buried in this cemetery,
by
putting a small flower by their name.
*Please
go to the end of this survey should you have need of info about the cemetery,
plots,
cost, etc. or who to contact. Janice

KILLED &
INJURED in TORNADO
at STRONG
Many Local Citizens, Former
Residents of Stricken
Area Rush to Strong Following News Received of
Catastrope
Strong Tornado May 9, 1927
Approximately, 23 persons were killed and
upwards of 50 were more
or less injured when a tornado struck the
towns of Strong and Norphlet
in Union County Arkansas about four o'clock
Monday afternoon.
The twister coursed over several states
including Texas, Arkansas,
Missouri and Illinois. In Cedar Grove and South Highlands, suburbs
of Shreveport, the tornado dipped down but did slight damage with
no loss of life reported.
At Norphlet, an oil town near El Dorado, the
tornado blew down all
the oil derricks and twisted residences about
the town into splinters.
Several casualties was the result at this
place. At Strong, which was
the hardest hit of the two Union County
towns, the tornado dipped
down like an unleased lion and left death and
desolation in its
path, the result of which is
indescribable. Mangled people, some
dead, some dying, lay in the wake of the
cyclone, with some under
tinder the debris of a mass of ruins before
the framework of a quiet
and pretty little farming town of Union
county. Only the shattered
trunks of two trunks of two business houses
of the village were
left standing, those being the bank and
hotel, the resat a pile of
ruins lying flat or partially so upon the
grounds. Nearly all the
residences of the town were caught in the
grip of the cyclone and
were left a twisted and splintered wreck.
Strong is located on the Missouri Pacific
railway between Bastrop
and El Dorado about forty miles northwest of
Bastrop and since
Bastrop begun to grow a few years ago, many
of the citizens of
Strong cast their lot here. For that reason, much apprehension was
felt here when it was first learned that a
cyclone had struck the town
and many Bastrop people left immediately
through the heavy
down pour of rain that was falling at the
time. Several residents of
this city lost some of their dearest friends
and relatives in
the cyclone.
Among the residents of a Bastrop who hastened
to the ill fated town
were; Mr. and Mrs. J. W.
Lawrence, Frank Harrison, Mrs. Ruby
McMath, John Sisson, Bud and Walter
Hood, Dr. E.M. Clark, Jasper
and George Norris, Mr. and Mrs. Hendricks, Levy
Gray, George
Gilmore, Quillar Davis, Harry Davis, Mr. and
Mrs. Miles, Davis and
Fltetcher Harrison.
