Old Vann Cemetery
Adair County, Oklahoma

© 2005-06 by: Martha Jones-McGinnis-Real

This cemetery is located about 15 miles south of Stilwell OK on OK HWY 59, turn west on Nellie Mays Greasy School Road, travel approximately 1.5 miles west. Greasy Fire Station is on the left, cemetery is north of the fire station about 300 yards on the east side of the creek.

There is no public entrance, access to the cemetery is surrounded by private fenced land and the creek. The cemetery itself is on the creek bank and not fenced in.

The cemetery is overgrown with weeds and trees. I was told by family that most of the headstones were washed away by a flood in 1945. Most of the rock markers and headstones are in disarray. There are several graves surrounded and marked off by stone, one grave (maybe two) has a Creek traditional house (rotted away) over it. There was only two headstones with inscriptions, the family gave me the other information of whom was buried there.

One piece of a broken stone had an inscription of "Gone from our home but not from our hearts�."
