Mayor Bill Martin
City of Fayetteville
Dear Mayor Martin:
The National Cemetery in Fayetteville is about to run out of
burial spaces. As of April 3., 1989.; there were only 123 spaces
left., and this includes the 35 spaces that will become available
when the old lodge building is removed. This cemetery serves the
entire Northwest Arkansas area., not just this local area. For
the past several years the annual burial rate has been 1201, which
means by this time next year we must have more burial spaces.
The above named corporation was formed solely for the
purpose of raising funds to purchase land to donate to the
Federal government to expand the National Cemetery. We have
purchased three tracts of land which will'be donated as soon as
we get them ready and this should alleviate the immediate crisis.
However., we need money to purchase more lands. It is hoped the
attached data will explain the situation in more detail. If you
need further information please call me at 442-2389. or write me
at 5688 E. Huntsville Road,, Fayetteville., AR 72701.
In the name of the above named corporation I hereby request
the sum of $25,,000.00 as a contribution.; or grant., to be used
exclusively for the purchase of land to expand said cemetery.
Either I,, or an authorized representative., stand ready to meet
with your particular bodyof government at the earliest possible
time.
Sincerely,;
aZe f
Elvie P. Heiney
President

3 April 1989
The sole purpose of the Regional National Cemetery Improvement
Corporation (hereinafter.referred to as "RNCIC") is to raise mon-
e y to buy land for the expansion of the National Cemetery in Fay-
e tteville. The federal government will not buy land for the ex-
pansion of any existing National Cemetery, however, they will
accept donations of land providing it is contiguous to such a cem-
e tery. There are certain details and procedures we must follow
which are too numerous to mention here, but we will be able to Com-
ply with said procedures, it is just a matter of a lot of hard work.
:HISTORICA,L DATA: The Fayetteville National Cemetery was established
in 1867 with the purchase of two lots for the sum of $350. The first
burials were brought in from the battles of Pea hidge, Elk Horn Tav-
ern, PPairie Grove, and the many other battle sites in this area.
Thererr l0 Unknown U.S. Soldiers interred there. The original cem-
e tery is arranged in the likeness of a wagon wheel, with the flag
pole as the hub. The graves of the Unknown Soldiers are the three
rows that make up the outer part of the wheel. There is a hand molded
brick wall surrounding the cemetery, which was erected in approxi-
mately 1873. This wall is now on the National Historic Preservation
List. A Gettysburg Address plaque is at the entrance. The cemetery
consists of 6.11 acres (266,151 sq. ft.).. There are a little over
4,200 veterans (some with their spouses) interred here at the pres-
e nt time. There were only 123 burial spaces left as of this dat'.
'4lember§hip (participation) in the RNCIC has only one requirement and
that is "one must be interested in the expansion of this cemetery".
The RNCIC is not limited to veterans, or members of any veterants
organization. As a matter of fact, our vice-president is not a vet-
eran. Our meetings are open to the public. At times it may appear
that we are a part of the American Legion, this is not true. All of
the veteran's organizations in Northwest Arkansas have contributed
time and money to this project for which we are grateful. Post #27
here in Fayetteville permits us to use their building for meetings
and they pay our admirjstrative expenses. Our officers, directors,
and workers do not receive any compensation.
Anyone wishing to make a contribution may do so by making their check
payable to "HNCIC" and mailing it to P.O. Box 4221, Fayetteville AR
72702. We were organized within the meaning of section 501(c) (3) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 or the corresponding provision of
any future United States Internal hevenue. Law, our IRS number is
58-1598155. Contributions are tax deductible under these provisions.
If you have questions pertaining to contributions, or any other part
of RNCIC call Elvis P. Eeiney at 442-2389, or Ken Gibson at 442-5291
on Tuesdays & Thursdays.
