Twenty Ninth & Georgia Chickasha, Grady County, Oklahoma
Fairview Park Cemetery is located on 29th Street and Georgia outside of Chickasha, Grady, OK. Originally, six acres of this cemetery was bought as a Roman Catholic burial ground on 17 December 1908 by Reverend A. M. Urban DeHasque, the pastor of Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church in Chickasha. It's in deplorable condition now with only a few gravestones left. Some people were moved to Rose Hill Cemetery. Other graves were plowed over in order to farm! We are hoping something is done so that what is left of this sacred burial ground is saved from being plowed over. The land now belongs to the Chickasha School System. Below is a list of some of the people buried at Fairview Park Cemetery. Not all names or dates are known.

It might be noted that so many of those in this cemetery died in the same time frame. Some died with diptheria, pneumonia, small pox, and typhoid. It could not have been a happy era.
