U.S. Data Repository -- USGenNet Inc. -- Please read U.S. Data Repository Copyright Statement on this page: Trent Cemetery (sorted by name) February 2005 by Lisa L. Luther (charleywest@hotmail.com) Trent Cemetery Caretakers: Bill and Jean Newman 713 Flat Creek Road Alkol, WV Transcriber’s Note: The inscriptions listed here are as true as possible to the actual text on the headstones. All military markers will be noted with † beside the name. If I have estimated a birth date then I will denote it with cDOB (calculated date of birth). Directions: From the Alkol Post Office, turn on Bulger Road. Take your time and drive slowly - this road is narrow and curvy! A short distance from the post office the road will split – stay on the road going to the left, do not veer to the right up the hill. Follow along Bulger Road until you come to the old Martin Elementary School building on your right. Begin to slow down here. Make the 1st right onto Left Hand Fork/Bark Camp Branch (just beside the old school). Follow Left Hand Fork without making any turns (again I caution you to drive slowly), and you will be on a graveled dirt road that winds up a mountain. When you see the gas well on your left (near the top of the mountain) you are headed in the correct direction. Continue down the mountain and just a short piece after the road straightens you will see on your right a nice open area with a pretty brick home. This is the home of Bill and Jean Newman (the mailbox will read ‘713 Flat Creek Road’). The Trent Cemetery is on their personal property on the hill behind their house and is not always visible from the road. The Newman’s are exceptionally friendly folks so please ask their permission before continuing on to the cemetery. ===================================================================================================== NAME BIRTH DEATH ===================================================================================================== =A= Arthur, Lawrence - - Arthur, Russell - - =C= Clark, Billy Lee 04/16/1928 08/27/1928 Clark, Bethel Howell 04/07/1932 11/24/1979 Clark, Carlos Richard 04/04/1950 04/04/1950 Clark, Ella Jean 09/14/1935 Clark, Infant 04/01/1930 04/01/1930 Clark, John M. 06/26/1871 11/16/1913 Clark, Josephine T. 02/23/1876 12/02/1906 Clark, Meroel Cline 03/26/1919 01/19/1938 Clark, †Mason D. 08/14/1921 01/28/1960 *Clark, Mattie E. 01/03/1897 07/07/1994 Clark, Thomas S. 01/01/1895 03/27/1968 Clark, Wylie D. 10/10/1936 10/10/1936 =T= Trent, Elizabeth 1856 1906 Trent, Irene 1884 1900 Trent, Dr. Leander 1857 1895 *Trent, Phoebe 1882 1887 Trent, Rebecca L. 11/28/1842 11/11/1931 Trent, Rosco 1883 1906 Trent, Smith 01/09/1828 08/11/1910 =W= Whitten, Missouri B.
