The Hardy Cemetery is a historic cemetery at 722 Arkansas Highway 225 East in Centerville, Faulkner County, Arkansas. It is set on 3 acres (1.2 ha) fringed by cedar trees. It consists of six barrel-vaulted tombs, all built to house members of the Hardy family, whose patriarch, Dr. Henry Baxton Hardy, was a prominent local doctor and politician. Only three of the tombs are occupied, by Dr. Hardy, his wife Cora, and Marco, one of his seven children. The others remained unoccupied due a rift in family relations.[2]
The cemetery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.[1]
