The Paint Rock Cemetery had its beginnings on the Britton Lee farm, when his six year old son George was killed by a falling Oak tree. The men had been cutting a tree to use in making wooden wheels for oxcarts. George Lee was the first grave at Paint Rock Cemetery, four miles south of Paris, Arkansas on Highway 109.

Britton was a farmer and during the Civil War he was a soldier in the Union Army. Memoirs of Lillie Lee Dosher (Britton and Martha Lee's granddaughter) "My grandfather, Britton Lee got his discharge here in Ft. Smith, when the Civil War was over. He was a native of North Carolina. His wife was Martha. Her maiden name was Collier. She was from Virginia. My grandfather, Britton Lee, fought in the Union Army. I have an Uncle Lovett Lee buried here in the National Cemetery. He was killed near Paris, Arkansas, but not in a battle, Civil War was over in 1865. Uncle Lovett was killed in 1864. Amanda died before my time. Didn't recollect George, as he died long before I was born, a tree fell on him they was chopping down."
