Biography

I believe Kimsey and his family may be buried in this cemetery The burial of Amos Erastus Lambert is unknown, but buried somewhere near vaughn Arkansas. He died 1801-1864 and came here from N.C. as did Kimsey here is the obit I have on Kimsey Lambeth from the Bentonville Democrat an old slave darkey, died at his home three miles east of this city last Sunday morning after an illness of several months duration. He had lived in this community for more than fifty years and was known by nearly everybody. Like most of the old time slave darkies, he was always kind and courteous to all white people and accommodating to all his neighbors. In fact he was a good darkey. The Springdale News 5/4/1909 I may be wrong but the other cemetery he may be buried in is the Jefferson Cemetery in Bentonville.
