Directions to find these graves: From St. Paul, Arkansas, take Highway 23 North for 1/10 mile; turn right on County Road #4448, which goes East and crosses a concrete bridge over White River. Stay on #4448 for 2.6 miles; there will be a large hay field on your left. Go 2/10 mile further and you will see a pile of old chimney rocks on the left side of the road bank. Now there are fields of pine trees on both sides of the road. Continue for 3/10 mile further and turn left onto the Forest Service road. This will be a total of 3.1 miles from Highway 23. (This forest service road may or may not be driveable). Stay on this forest service road for 2/10 mile to a fork in the road. Walk up a small hill on the left fork about 100 feet. The graves are on the right side, about 20 feet from the road and are surrounded by large oak trees.

Location in Section 11, Township 13 North, Range 26 West.

There is only one tombstone which can be read, that of Nancy Eastep (1858-1910). There are a couple of other sandstone tombstones which appear to have once had names on them, but which cannot be read now.

There are signs of an old homeplace nearby. This land was once owned by David Washington 'Dave" Jones and his wife, Mary E. KIRBY Jones. Both David & Mary are buried in the Kilgore Cemetery nearby.
