Upper Campground Cemetery
Madison County, Arkansas


Thanks go to Robert and Rosa Cline for their work on this cemetery information

~

Upper Campground Cemetery is located between Marble and Kingston. It is 1.4 miles from Kingston... you will turn left on Madison County Road 2535, you will then follow white gravel road around curves 1.6 miles and then the drive to the cemetery will come up pretty fast (it's sort of hid behind a small hill). Right now there are signs pointing the way, but they are fading,...so if they aren't readable just follow the road around curves and stay to the right on all curves.

This cemetery was transcribed on April 7 and 8, 2001.
