Carnahan Cemetery: Washington County, Arkansas

HOME

CARNAHAN CEMETERY
Washington County, Arkansas

This is a historical cemetery located in western Washington County, Arkansas. It is no longer in use. It is also known as the Bean Cemetery (not to be confused with the larger Bean Cemetery in Lincoln, AR that has already been transcribed on this site). It is an abandoned rural cemetery located on private land in between Lincoln and Cane Hill, Arkansas. There are two Revolutionary War soldiers buried here. The graveyard contains some branches and other debris, but is slated for clean-up soon. This cemetery was transcribed by Randal Seyler in early November of 2009.
