Garland County cemeteries from the north side of the Lake Ouachita site were relocated by the Army Corps of Engineers between 28 June 1952 and 25 July 1952 before the area was inundated with water. Many probably buried in Montgomery Co., but the county line changed so cemeteries ended up in Garland Co. AR after 1917.
