PROSPECT
CEMETERY Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma
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.
Directions: Take State Highway 9 to 102, take 102 south
approx 1 mile. There will be a green cemetery sign, take the dirt road to
east. Prospect Cemetery is on the top of a hill past the HOBBS homestead.
On the southside of the road, there is a large sign and two
gates. Nalora BURNS and Sharon CRAWFORD canvassed this cemetery Oct 24,
