Tyner and Alice Tyner Timmons, University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK. 1971, Volume 4, p. 75, under Peery Family Cemetery. (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Their information (including any diagrams or maps) is given here as a historical reference and is presented "as is."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 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. 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 access it under "Books."

NOTE: Based upon a survey done in 1971, 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.~Death Takes Mrs. Clara McNaughton, Pioneer of Miami_____ Mrs. Clara E. McNaughton, 71 years old, one of the pioneer residents of this vicinity, died at 1 o'clock this afternoon at her home, 203 D Street Northwest. She was the widow of the late J. P. McNaughton, first mining prospector in what is now the Oklahoma zinc and lead field, who died Nov. 13, 1932.
Mrs. McNaughton was born Oct. 1, 1863 at Paola, Miami county, Kas. She was the daughter of David L. and Elizabeth F. Peery. Her father was one of the founders of the community in which she was born. She came to what is now Ottawa county in 1876, and had been a resident of this immediate vicinity since that time.
In November, 1881, she was married to J. P. McNaughton. Mr. and Mrs. McNaughton, with their children, moved to Miami in 1896, so the latter could attend local schools.
For more than 50 years she had been active as a member of the Friend's church. Her family was one of the pioneer families of the northeast Indian Territory. During the last 35 years she had lived at the home where she died. Mrs. McNaughton is survived by three sons, Willis of near Miami, and Ray and Dr. G. P. McNaughton, both of Miami. Two children, Clara Pearl and Clarence Earl, preceded her in death. She is also survived by three brothers, A. J. Peery of Lindsay, Cal; S.L. Peery of Timber Lake, S. D.; and Frank C. Peery of Phoenix, Ariz,; three sisters, Mrs. Hall Boyles of Gunnison, Colo.; Miss Breeze Peery of Muskogee and Mrs. A. Scott Thompson of Miami, and nine grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
Funeral services will be held at 3 o'clock Thursday afternoon at the Friend's church. Burial will be in the Peery cemetery, northeast of Miami on the Mrs. A. Scott Thompson farm. The Cooper Undertaking company is in charge.
