Located at Wheeler Bend on the Illinois Bayou.
From the Junction of Highway 7 and Pleasant View Road just north of
Russellville, go west on Pleasant View Road for 1.8 miles to the junction of
Wheeler Bend Road. Turn right on Wheeler Bend Road and go north for 1.4 miles to
end of road. Cross cattle guard and go across Clifton Andrews farm for 1 mile.
Located on east side of farm pond.

This cemetery has also been referred to as "Old Williamson". I counted nineteen
unmarked graves, with five of them being outside the fence.

He was listed in the 1840 Arkansas census as Howard Cagle in Pope County. He
brought a mill stones with him from North Carolina and is supposed to have
operated the first mill west of the Mississippi River. How true this is, I'm not
sure.  The community of Caglesville in Pope County was named for members of his
family.  Relatives in Pope County still own the millstones.
