Nancy's Lawrence County Corner

JENKINS CEMETERY
Lawrence County, Arkansas



Location: Portia, Arkansas. As you come into Portia from the east, turn north on County Road 430. Go 2.5 miles then curve west on County Road 403. Go 1.4 miles and turn north on County Road 407. Follow all the way to the end (.6 miles), past the house and into the field. Follow the field road around to the cemetery. Most of the cemetery is located in the wooded area directly ahead.

Latitude: 36.1331249N -- Longitude -91.0337342W -- Map

I have been including deaths listed in the Times Dispatch Newspaper from Walnut Ridge. In some cases the birth date was not given. In those cases I listed "no date" as a birth date. This does not mean that a birth is not included on their monument.
