Recorded as "Ussery Family Cemetery, but have been informed the correct spelling is "USSREY."

Located (was located) in Section 14, Range 23E, Township 11N of Sequoyah County. Cemetery was surveyed around 1970, and they reported "Monuments are piled at base of a big tree. Cemetery believed to have been close by. Total number of graves unknown." Safe to say it is abandoned / desecrated.

Identified by Tyner in the American Indian Institute's "Our People And Where They Rest," (OPAWTR) James W. Tyner, Maxine Tyner and Alice Tyner Timmons, American Indian Institute, University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK. 1969-1985 (Library of Congress No. QE99-C5-T97) Volume 7, p. 94.

Their information (including any diagrams or maps) is given here as a historical reference and is presented "as is."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. 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)
