Sims, Nettie was actually the daughter of William
Jordan Sims and Mary Bell Biggs Sims, born July 9, 1900, and died in
1909.
I
noticed you also listed the Mankin family. My Aunt Mattie (Sims) married Ellis Mankin, the son of Preacher Mankin on March 14, 1920, and he died
on Oct. 9, 1920 after he was killed by a person stealing his team of horses
with a wagon.
Two
names that I know of that are missing are part of the Sims family. I have also visited there, as my grandfather
is a Sims buried there with a broken headstone. He is right beside Nettie Sims. His name was Floyd General Sims, born Aug. 4, 1893, and died Feb. 11,1925. His first
wife is also buried beside him with no marker. Her name was Willa May Sims, born Aug. 25, 1898, and died March 20, 1918.
You
also mentioned that one of the headstones might be Aria Sims. Aria
Sims died
May 31, 1895.
My
maiden name is Sims, and I have visited the Buffalo Cemetery, and have recently
started working again on the family history. The Biggs family is also part of my family, as my great-grandmother
was a Biggs. The same goes with the Smith family. When great-grandmother Biggs married a Sims, then a Smith after the death of her husband.
I was amazed at how many of the family group are buried
there. Mary B. Biggs Sims Smith is buried in Iowa Park, Texas, and she died on November
10, 1944. She was born December 12,
1875. I have a copy of a little book that had a lot of the Sims families
as well as the Biggs families listed. My cousin has the original, as her
grandmother had the book. Her grandmother was Mattie Louis Sims Mankin, born on Sept. 14, 1897, and she died on May
6, 1981. She is also buried in Iowa Park, Texas.

Hi Renee,
Lydia Cates. That's my husband's great-grandmother. I have an
approximate birth date for W.F. (William Franklin) Cates (1829) and the
death date (30 Sep 1896), but didn't add it, since it isn't on his tombstone.
Below are additional people buried in Buffalo Cemetery without
headstones or missing headstones.
Cox, Mary "Catherine" (McVey) born Sept 1877 died
Feb 1919 Unmarked grave next to Harmon Hawkins: info from daughter.
Cox, Robert Lee born April 1878 died February 1919 Unmarked
grave next to Harmon Hawkins; info from daughter.

Unmarked grave; death certificate; her grave just S of James Trafton Rice
grave.

Ward, William Caroll b. June 24, 1841 d. Feb 25, 1920
Cates, Emmett b. Aug 29, 1890 d. 1891 of pneumonia. The last time our grandmother
was there she found the little rock where William Robert Joseph Iley Cates had
carved his name. She stood the rock by his father's grave, William Robert
Joseph Iley Cates.

I
looked at your 2001 records of the Buffalo Cemetery at Boles, Arkansas this
morning. This probably won't help anyone else, but my mother visited
there in August 1933 and found the headstone of our ancestor, Mary Terry
there. She was born November 29, 1839 and died April 15, 1918. She
was the wife of William J. McElroy who is already in your listing. Her
headstone has been removed, so her grave is probably unidentified now.
