Merrimack
Village knew the people who were buried
in
Merrimack

Who

Where did they come from?
Who

W h o w e r e t h e i r chil d r e n ?
What caused their deaths ?

he building of Merrimack Manufacturing Co.
of Huntsville
begun in 1899. The company began operation in 1900.
The Merrimack Cemetery was available to the people who were
employed by the company.
The earliest death date on a tombstone
is November 22,
1902,
(Etta May Cornutt) followed closely by
December 18,
1902,
(Isaac Brooks). Since death records were not
kept
in AIabama before 1909,
and obituaries were not aIways
printed in the newspapers in the early 1900s, and many graves are
not marked with a stone,
but with wooden
markers that
have
deteriorated, it is difficult to be certain of any earlier dates
of death.
Mr.
E„ F. DuBose, Principal of Joe Bradley School, came to
Merrimack Village as a teacher in 1921.
School
chi1dren wouId
tell
him that their pet had died.
When asked what they did with
the body, they said they just threw it in a hole in the cemetery.
Mr,
DuBose went to the cemetery and found large sinkholes where
graves had been and trees growing out of the graves.
He talked
about this with mill management who let him use the labor of Bill
Edwards, a Black employee of the mill, and they provided soil for
filling the holes.
Mr.
DuBose and Mr. Edwards worked all of the
winter of 1921,
cutting down trees and filling graves, until the
cemetery was in better shape.
Mr.
DuBose is sure there were no
stone s left fallen into the graves.
There have been stories of the existance of a plot of the
cemetery showing places and names of those buried there. I talked
with Mr. Owen Hammett about possible cemetery records kept by the
mill office. Mr.
Hammett said there are no burial records. If an
employee wanted to bury a family member there,
Mr. Hammett would
write a permit on a slip of paper.
That person would give it to
the undertaker. The mill office did not keep a record of burials.
At times a family would bury a loved one,
especially in the case
of a premature infant, in the night without benefit of undertaker
or permission from the mill management.
When I phoned the Springs Industries,
Inc.,
in Fort Mill,
South Carolina,
the company who bought Huntsville Mfg.
Co. from
Lowenstein Co. , an attorney talked with me about records
they
might
have kept and said he had looked in the files and found no
cemetery records.
There must have been some system of allotting plots to
families
at one time for family plots do exist.
Some are
indicated by concrete posts with the family initial inscribed on
the top of four posts surounding an area.
Others are fenced
in.
Many others are marked off by concrete bars or brick set in the
ground .
Mr.
Lem Speck farmed on the land now occupied by the Milton
Frank Stadium and the grove of pine trees.
When people needed to
have a grave dug, they c a l l e d on Mr. Speck and he would pace off
the site, then someone would dig the grave.
In January of 1946, M. Lowenstein & Sons purchased Merrimack
Mfg.
Co. and the textile mill was called Huntsville Mfg. Co. The
village was then called Huntsville Park.
The cemetery was named
HuntsviIl e Park Cemetery.
The Lowenstein Company gave Joe Bradley School
and
the
was
c e m e t e r y t o t h e c i t y of H u n t s v i l l e .
when t h e c e m e t e r y w a s given to th e c i t y no r e c o r d s went with
it.
The mill tried to g i v e the c e m e t e r y to the c o u n t y and to the
city
e a r l i e r than 1951,
w h e n it w a s g i v e n t o t h e city,.
Neither
accepted
because
it w a s a l m o s t f u l l a n d t h e r e w a s n o
room
for
expansio n .
V a n d a l s h a v e a b u s e d t h e c e m e t e r y o v e r t h e years. At o n e t i m e
p e o p l e f o u n d m a n y t o m b s t o n e s p i l e d in t h e m i d d l e of t h e p r o p e r t y .
A
group
of
concerned families worked to put
stones
in
their
original
places.
Some m istakes may have been made,
but
it is
b e l i e v e d t o b e in p r o p e r order,.
In
later
years
the
Boy Scout
Troop
One,
sponsored
by
Merrimack
Mill and later by H u n t s v i l l e
Mfg.
Co.,
cleaned
and
cared for the cemetery as a community project.
Some
of
the
older tombstones are made
of
concrete
with
inscriptions
