Cemetery Record

South Union United Methodist Campground

Compiled By Nellie Ward Hughes
1001 Carroll Street 
Starkville, Mississippi 1972

This is the one-hundredth year of the South Union Methodist Campground. For this reason, we decided to compile this cemetery record. The records were copied from the tombstones by Martha Sue Ward, William A. Hughes and Nellie Ward Hughes (Mrs. W. A.).

Beginning on the east side of the cemetery, we numbered the rows and recorded the tombstones reading from south to north. We tried to list every grave, but there were many without tombstones ands some that were too weathered and broken to read. We regret that we could not identify every grave. If we have made mistakes in copying, please forgive us.

The sketch of the arbor above was done by Carolyn Hughes Rizor, daughter of Mr. & Mr.s William A. Hughes.

The campground, church and cemetery are located in Choctaw County about three miles west of Ackerman, Mississippi. Memorial services are held each year on the fourth Sunday in May and an annual Campmeeting begins on Friday before the fourth Sunday in July.
