Old Union Cemetery
Partial Listing
Surveyed May 2001 by Gayle and Ron Thomas
Location: Originally known as THE ARMSTRONG CEMETERY, this historic burial site is located at the intersection of Henry County roads 57 and 194 in Beat
5. The dirt road bounding the cemetery on two sides winds past the old Little Rock post office and continues on toward Abbie Creek by way of Bodiford’s Mill,
a community landmark for over a century. Martin H. Armstrong is said to have been the first person buried here, and the earliest marked grave dates to 1863.
The latest burial occurred in May, 2001. Although maintained through the Union Grove Free Will Baptist Church, this cemetery has traditionally served the
whole community as a burial ground, and now contains 295 named graves, 47 marked but unnamed or illegibly marked graves, and countless graves that are no
longer marked in any way. Contributions to the care and maintenance of this cemetery may be made to UNION FREEWILL BAPTIST CEMETERY FUND, % HOLT STOKES,
6485 COUNTY ROAD 53, ABBEVILLE, AL 36310.
We have attempted to identify persons buried here by listing their parents, spouses, and children. As this is our own community, we have interviewed many
neighbors, renewed several acquaintances, and made many new friends in the course of researching this cemetery. In addition to personal contacts, we have
taken information from census and marriage records of Henry County. A most valuable source has also been The Bend of the Abbie, a personal history of the
Union community written by “Miss Linnie” Stokes, who was a relative and friend of many of the persons buried here. We hope that others will provide
information we have been unable to determine, and will correct any errors we have made.

One section of the cemetery contains a row of infant graves, poignant testimony to the the high incidence of infant mortality in the rural South.

The following burials were identified by Mrs. Marvin Scott in a survey of this cemetery in the late 1950's, but there is no
evidence of them now. But for Mrs. Scott’s survey, we would certainly have missed the grave of Little Kate Bodiford, whose headstone has vanished over the
years. The only thing left marking her grave is a little foot marker with almost the illegible initials, K O B. |
