27 APR 2020, Memorial notes/time of transfer. Added gender per existing data. 1) Bio retained in entirety, as written by original creator of this memorial. 2) I don't see the notation* mentioned in the original bio, below the divider, as to her marriage to Allen Fletcher Jimison, on either of these photographs, but I am going to leave it alone for now. Maybe there was another earlier stone upon which this inscription information is based. 3) YOB on the marker is 1879, leaving alone for now unless someone has confirming information. Marker could contain typographical, scrivener's or stone-carver error.
25 DEC 2021 Adding full plot cite: Corresponds to the plat map for the canvass and survey from the American Indian Institute; "Our People And Where They Rest," James W. Tyner, Maxine Tyner and Alice Tyner Timmons, University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK. [University that received taxpayer dollars for the program/product; thus presumed to be in the public domain] 1976, Volume 7, pp. 60-63 (Library of Congress No. A-304793, et al.)
Their information (including any diagrams or maps) is given here as a historical reference and is presented "as is."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 genealogical 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. The set of books are available at many Oklahoma libraries. 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)
