As Coryell and Bell County histories clearly show, as the military installations grew in the area many families and buried dead were sometimes forced off of their property/burial space. As show by the now existent Okay Community that was displaced by 1940. Then further shown in 1953 when the United States Corp of Engineer's moved 100 bodies, thirty for which were unknown, some 1600 feet to make way for an extended runway for Gray National Air Force Base, but at least they tried in to align them to original positioning.
