Emergency Crime Scene and Biohazard Cleanup in Enola, AR

Enola is a small town in eastern Faulkner County in central Arkansas, about nineteen miles northeast of Conway, the county seat.

The town grew up near Fredrick's Lick, a natural salt lick near Cadron Creek, where settler Jonathon Hardin had established his farm by 1837.

The origin of Enola's name is unknown, but local legend maintains that a lost traveler carved the word 'alone' backward on a sign, producing 'Enola.'

Enola was incorporated on July 9, 1969, long after the community itself had taken shape.

The 2020 census counted 318 people in Enola; at the 2000 census it had only 188 residents living in 72 households, before the population jumped to 338 in 2010.

Enola covers about 2.71 square miles, a roomy rural footprint for so small a town, at the crossing of Arkansas Highways 107, 36, and 310.

Mount Zion Baptist Church, built in the late 1840s, is among Enola's oldest institutions.
