"Most of the veterans of the [Civil] War buried at Princeton had no headstones. Veterans from both sides were buried there after the battle of Jenkins Ferry, where the Federals lost 200 and had 955 wounded and the Southern forces lost 300 and had 300 wounded. One inscription on a marble headstone in the Princeton Cemetery (approved by the court to be established in October 1848 and purchased 3 acres for the sum of $10) [http://www.couchgenweb.com/arkansas/dallas/princet.htm] reads as follows: Harris, Eugene, Chief Surgeon of Clark's Brigade, May 30, 1828- September 10, 1864."
