This cemetery is located in a remote location about 2 1/2 miles southeast of Pettigrew. It is in Section 10, Township 13, Range 25, on private property. This land was homesteaded by Granville Williams in March 1899

Directions: From Pettigrew go East on Highway 16 for about 1 1/2 miles. Turn right on County Road 4310/4410, and go about 1 mile; turn right on County Road 4765/4405 and go about 1 1/2 mile. Maps show this road ending on property owned in 2005 by Randy Bryant.

This is private property which is "posted" and you should check with the landowner before entering. It would be very difficult to find this cemetery without a guide.

GPS Coordinates: N35.79640 W093.63174

Mr. Fred Williams provided the information about the burials in this cemetery in 1995. Fred's father, Joseph Williams, was the son of Granville Williams who homesteaded the property where the cemetery is located.

I visited this cemetery on 29 December 2011, with a local landowner to guide me. Every grave in this cemetery has been identified and several years ago Funeral Home Markers were placed by the fieldstones with names on them. However, it appears that the squirrels have chewed the plastic letters off of the Funeral Home Markers and they are now almost impossible to read !
