Robert's Arm Pentecostal Cemetery

This cemetery is still active and is very well kept with the grass mowed regularly. At the time it was transcribed, Mr. Leander Hewlett was the caretaker. This cemetery is located behind the Pentecostal church but is not accessable from the church area because of a river between the church and the cemetery. This river has created a valley behind the church and the cemetery is on the opposite river bank. It is easy to find the Pentecostal Church in Robert's Arm so I'm going to give directions on how to get to the cemetery from the church parking lot.

As you leave the church parking lot take a left turn. Continue straight, and at the bottom of the hill take another left turn. Take the first left and continue straight to the graveyard.

Headstone inscriptions were transcribed by JAMIE ROWSELL, September 1999. While I have endeavored to be as correct as humanly possible, there may be typographical errors.
