PROSPECT CEMETERY

Pottawatomie County, OK

This is a well kept cemetery with many unmarked graves.
Most of the unmarked stones have been marked by the caretaker with
white metal cross shaped signs, due to the fact that many of the unmarked
stones are sandstone and deteriorating rapidly from the elements.

This cemetery is taken care of by the Tribbey Cemetery Fund.

Take State Highway 9 to 102, take 102 south approx 1 mile will be a
green cemetery sign, take dirt road to east, Prospect Cemetery is on
the top of a hill past the HOBBS homestead, on the southside of the road
large sign and two gates.

Sharon Crawford and Nalora Burns canvassed this cemetery Oct 24, 1998.
