D/O Jesse Dunlap. Brothers and family were murdered at Mountian Meadows Utah 9/11/1857. W/O Wm S Lewis. Married at Clarksville, Ar 1862. Bertha Rutha(ie) Dunlap died in 1933 in Oklahoma. She is buried in Molly Field Cemetery, Tahlequah, OK. When you go through the cemetery gate, her tombstome in the last one in the far left corner. It is a tall slender native sandstone with 'R L' scratched in it. Very homemade.Recorded as an "initials-only" marker. Not found in 2014 visit. Gender not given.

Plot number corresponds to the map in the canvass and survey published in "Our People And Where They Rest," James W. Tyner, Maxine Tyner and Alice Tyner Timmons, American Indian Institute, University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK. 1982 Volume 11, p. 11-18 (Library of Congress No. QE99-C5-T97)

Their information (including any diagrams or maps) is given here as a historical reference and is presented "as is."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)
Aug. 2021 update: I am informed that the set is now available on the Family Search website, but you have to be a member, and be signed in, to be able to access it under "Books."

NOTE: Based upon a survey done in February, 1982, with a visual assessment at that time; i.e., the marker WAS there when they canvassed the cemetery. Thousands of important historical records are lost to today's researchers due to the fact that there are those who won't put them up on such sites as FAG - unless the marker can be found today; ignoring the fact that tornadoes, theft or removal, vandalism, damage from unrestrained farm animals, desecration due to agricultural development/usage/abuse and other such factors, (including re-internment at a different cemetery) may well have intervened over the years, and the marker the entry relied upon may indeed not be found today. Nevertheless, the value of submitting this memorial as a historical record is relevant and important to those who are tracing their ancestry.~
