Plot number corresponds to the map in the canvass and survey published in "Our People And Where They Rest," James W. Tyner and Alice Tyner Timmons, American Indian Institute, University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK. 1969, Vol. 1, p. 114. (Library of Congress No. QE99-C5-T97) [University that received taxpayer dollars for the program/product; thus presumed to be in the public domain] This is the second of two McNair cemeteries in Mayes County which they documented; the other one is in Volume 3.
Their information (including any diagrams or maps) is given here as a historical reference and is presented "as is."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. The set of books are available at many Oklahoma libraries. 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 around 1969, 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.
* Meaning the cemetery was mapped out on a plat, with location of the graves. It is not just an enumeration of people who are buried there. There is a difference.~
