Fun to see a Carmack in Laguna Hills, Ca. I am a Grandson of Revy Ross Carmack and would
like to know if the Laguna Hills Carmacks are related. I live four miles from them.

Al Putman, son of Nettie Carmack along with his daughter, Lora Fratt, both of Laguna
Hills, CA and Al's niece and her husband, John and Linda Carmack Wise of Emenclaw, WA
attended the annual Labor Day Carmack weekend reunion held in Oden, Arkansas.
They stayed in the Riverview Cabins on the Ouachita River, Oden, AR
Saturday evening the local Carmack bluegrass band played on the courthouse square in Mt
Ida, AR.
Sunday the reunion took place in the Oden School cafeteria with plenty of food. A
continuous slide show of Carmacks was shown and an auction followed.
One of the highlights was that the guests and some of those who had not been to the
graves of Berry and his 2d wife, Liz Rainey Carmack, were driven by Mark Wilborg in his
4-wheel truck to the graves which are located deep in the woods on the old homestead in
Acorn, AR. Only in this generation have markers been placed as upto this time the graves
were identified with a pile of rocks. Hazel Kerr, daughter Berry's Ella was
responsible before her death. It is now an official cemetary recorded in the Mena, AR
Courthouse.
Ruth S Carmack and friend on their way back from visiting her daughter stopped in
Verden, OK to view the grave of Berry's first wife, Georgia Bailey Carmack. Likewise
it is only in the past 15 years has a marker been placed on her grave by Eileen Roberts
before her death and Larry Carmack. It was located near the Reynolds family plot where,
Ella Tolls is buried. The latter marker was also placed there by Eileen Roberts and Larry
Carmack.
Berry's only other son, Noah Carmack died in the flu epedemic of 1918-1919 along
with his wife, Mary, and a Pearl Carmack at Purcell, AR Hillside Cemetary (Lot 324)
Willard the surviving son is also buried there (Lot 298).
