Notes for James Willhoit:
LUTIE, now known as Theodosia, was named in 1893 by its first postmaster, Lucius Vernon. The old Theodosia post office, founded in 1886, was abandoned in 1951 because of the rising waters of the Bull Shoals Lake. As the recreation industry grew in the area, so did recognition of the name, Theodosia, until citizens of the area decided to change the name of their post office from Lutie to Theodosia. Now the old Lutie settlement is recalled by the name of the cemetery and the school district serving the area.
LUTIE CEMETERY: There are more than 400 graves in this cemetery which lies along Highway 160 between the Theodosia United Methodist Church and the True Hope General Baptist Church. The cemetery was dedicated in 1867 by James and Mary Jane Friend and stillbears the name of the old Lutie community which was settled during the early 1860's.
