INTERMENT AT: Morton Cemetery (Pumpkin Bend)
OBITUARY in the Wynne, Arkansas newspaper (Wynne Progress) for 12/5/1932 on Emma Hinkle Crissman the wife of James Bunyan Crissman (should be Buchanan vice Bunyan)
Morton Cemetery is in eastern Woodruff County, Arkansas. [Directions: Go west on hiway 64 3.5 miles from the Cross County / Woodruff County line. Turn north (i.e., right) onto hiway 269N; proceed 0.5 miles. Turn onto a dirt road. The cemetery sits on a hill approximately 0.1 miles off hiway 269N. Several of the taller markers are visible from the hiway.] According to her funeral record she is also buried here, but apparently there is no marker for her. The funeral record actually states interment at: "Morton Cemetery (Pumpkin Bend)." These are actually two different places. Pumpkin Bend Cemetery is just a little further down the same road. During an earlier visit to the Pumpkin Bend Cemetery there was no evidence of a marker for her there either. It is most likely that she is buried beside her husband at the Morton Cemetery.
According to his grandson DeWitt Hollingsworth the marker for James Buchanan Crissman was not put in place until about 1965 by his daughter Virginia (Crissman) Brawley. Presumably, there just is no marker for Emma (Hinkle) Crissman.
=============================
Per family tradition, she was lost in Chicago for a few days during and perhaps after the Chicago Fire of October 8-10, 1871. She would have been about 8 years old at the time.
