Other graves marked with rocks, but no exact locations for, are children of George Ramsey and wife, Arizona Bean. She was a daughter of William James and Mary Frances Chronister Bean:

Gracie Ramsey, born 1913, died at the age of 1 month.

Woodard Ramsey, born 1914, died at the age of 2 months.

Baby Ramsey, born 1915, died in infancy.

Baby Ramsey, died in infancy.

Baby Ramsey, died in infancy.

Mary Elizabeth Ramsey, born 1934, died at the age of 2 months.

Family notes state that Robert Bean, son of William and Mary Bean, is buried in this cemetery. No indication of where he is buried. Robert Bean was born in 1886, died June 20, 1888.

Family notes also state that Mary Francis Chronister Bean's mother is buried at Union Grove Cemetery. Her name is Armelia 'Millie' Jones Chronister, born 1841, died unknown, no indication where she is buried.

Eddie Ramsey, son of Luther and Elizabeth is buried here, no indication which grave is his. His mother Elizabeth was a Grooms before she married Luther 'Doc' Ramsey, she is also buried here in an unknown location.

There are also family records stating that Mary Frances Chronister Bean's father was buried here, but he died in Tennessee 10 years before Amelia moved her family to Arkansas. She had remarried a William Rylee, and my Uncle Emerald Rich and I believe that the family records are actually referring to him, but we have no proof that either of them are buried here...Novel
