To answer your question. I would suggest checking with the Genealogy/Family History Societies in LA or AR. Most of them have cemetery projects and may be able to help you find out where the AA cemeteries are. Also check with the AA churches in the area or any family members that you have from that area. They may know where black folk were buried.
