At one time there was a church near the entrance of the cemetery and the street went through until they put in the freeway. The graves listed above have tombstones or funeral home markers, but there are many unmarked graves, and many with rusted and illegible funeral home markers. There are also tombstones that are covered with trash that people have thrown away in the cemetery. Leaves are very thick, and tree limbs and branches have fallen onto several graves.
My goal in transcribing cemeteries is in hope that the ones interred "Won't be forgotten", and be of help to researchers, but so sad to say, many graves have already lost their identity and their final resting place is now unknown. If you have a loved one interred in Springhill cemetery and would like to have them listed, please send me an email with their name, birth and death dates.
Additional information is from obituaries, ADR:Arkansas Death Records and the Social Security Records database.
