(SARAH) AUGUSTA CALDWELL CUNNALS

8-1-1881 to 10-2-1902

*Wife of Edd Cunnals. *Her tombstone is broken & lying flat on the ground.

There is much confusion about the surname Gunnals or Cunnals. When I

last visited the cemetery, I chalked the tombstone & took a picture. In the photo

I took, it clearly shows a "C" making the name CUNNALS.

However, other researchers, most likely kin, give Augusta’s first name along

with her maiden name, but they give GUNNALS as the surname.

*On other listings, it is listed strictly under Gunnals .

However, reviewing the photos I took, it is very clearly spelled

CUNNALS, not GUNNALS (There is no “E” in it on the tombstone.)

What is totally illegible is the given name before Cunnals. Even though there

is a large crack running thru this name, I have finally deciphered it as being

"EDD", one of William Edward Cunnals's nic-names.

The other one was "Eddie".

I have listed Augusta under both CUNNALS and GUNNALS;

Cunnals being the name given on the tombstone. .

*Augusta & Edd Gunnals *Md: in 1898, Union County, Arkansas

*Her tombstone is broken & lying flat on the ground,.

The break in the stone runs thru ' Wife of "EDD" CUNNALS '

"She was too good, too gentle and fail- -. To dwell in this cold

world of care.

There is much confusion about the surname Gunnals or Cunnals. When I last

visited the cemetery, I chalked the tombstone & took a picture.

In the photo I took, it clearly shows a "C" making the name CUNNALS.

However, other researchers, give Augusta’s maiden name, as Caldwell,

but they give GUNNALS as the surname.

*On other listings, it is listed strictly under Gunnals . However, reviewing the

photos I took, it is very clearly spelled CUNNALS, not GUNNALS

What is totally illegible is the given name before Cunnals.

The tombstone says after Augusta's name......."Wife of (? the initials/

name has a large crack running thru these 3 letters---I have now been

able to decipher this as being not initials, but the nic-name of

"EDD", which William Edward "Eddie" or "EDD" Cunnals used.

I have listed Augusta under CUNNALS, (& also Gunnals)

as I see it, but in the event it is misspelled on the tombstone, the descendants

would know & the correct listing would be Gunnals.. *See CUNNALS listing.

Published with Charles Derwood Cameron's

obituary in the

Shreveport Times on January 12, 2019.

*Note: his widow, Billie Cameron has

taken over some of her late husband's

responsibilities. As of August 2019,

a new chain link fence has replaced

the old fence. Also overhanging limbs from

the trees surrounding the perimeter

have been trimmed back.....as per

the request of the late Charles Derwood

Cameron's wishes. *Note: go to end/last page:

*I believe the above covered grave belongs to either the

Harper or Brown family.

*View inside---very grown up with weeds, vines, etc.

Wooden structure does not appear to be stable—at least

I decided it was not worth crawling in there to try to see what

was on the broken stones. (2011)

*Should you wish to have more history, or info, on the Pleasant Hill

Cemetery....or Pleasant Grove or Curtis Grove Cemeteries,

I would recommend you contact RON PONDER @

(908) 230-3100...... rjponder@aol.com

*Mr. Ponder's ancestors from the "GOZA" family

played a part in donating land for the establishment of

Pleasant Hill & Pleasant Grove Cemeteries; later

these two cemeteries along with Curtis Grove

were merged / consolidated as far as the land

ownership. Mr. Ponder cited above has more concise

info about the origins of these three cemeteries.

*Note: There is a black Pleasant Hill Cemetery, located

Southeast of Strong, probably on or near Aurelle Rd. ....

down toward the Louisiana state line.
