PHOTO: This is probably what would have been the south entrance (City of Chandler side) for the Chandler Cemetery (aka in later years as the Wright Cemetery)

Located in the SE Corner of the NE ¼ Sec 4 T14N R4E in Lincoln County, Oklahoma, approximately three acres.

Inscriptions were recorded by Indian Spring Chapter, DAR, Chandler, Oklahoma October 21, 1962.

The Chandler Cemetery Association was organized the 27th day of October, 1892 by the following named persons as trustees: Frank A. Niblack, James C. Fletcher, B. F. Harriman, R. E. Jenness, L. J. Kalklosch. Said trustees purchased of A D Wright the above described property.

The above information was copied from reference material in the Chandler Public Library. All the DAR transcriptions for cemeteries in Lincoln County are copied and bound in blue hardback books.
(11_1_2009)

The Wright Cemetery is very overgrown and had not had any attention in many decades. Most of the headstones are toppled, broken or missing. Cedar trees are taking over and obscure many gravesites. This is a "private" cemetery, owned by the association so I do not know who is responsible for the upkeep.

FYI: A long time resident told me that the construction of the Turner Turnpike (I-44) through Chandler cut through the most northern part of the cemetery, which is supposed to be three (3) acres in size. He even said that some graves had been relocated but had not detail to offer.
