A defunct cemetery.

WAS located in Section 23, Range 19E, Township 19N in Mayes County, Oklahoma. Early in 1950, this was one of the cemeteries scheduled for relocation due to building of the Ft. Gibson Reservoir. There were three burials that they were never able to determine for relocation, so they remained there; presumably the location of the cemetery is now underwater or otherwise a part of the project. Tyner said he recorded these so that they might be remembered.

Identified by the Tyner team in the American Indian Institute's "Our People And Where They Rest," (OPAWTR) James W. Tyner, Maxine H. Tyner and Alice Tyner Timmons, University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK. 1976, (Library of Congress No. QE99-C5-T97) Volume 9, p. 82.

Their information (including any diagrams or maps) is given here as a historical reference and is presented "as is." Their book, like many such cemetery listing compilations, may contain errors. As with any genealogy information, this is merely a "source" and should be considered as such. It falls upon the end-user to verify the accuracy. See their map for use as a quick locator tool for graves here. Once freely available for online viewing, the OPAWTR volumes can now be accessed only at a LDS Family History Library, a partner library, or a Family History Center. (LDS)
