Rutledge, William Nov 16, 1845 Jun 17, 1906 Barnes, Mary J. Jul 31, 1848 Dec 30, 1918 (wife of W. )("a loving wife and sister dear has gone to rest")
(These 2 graves are enclosed by an ornamental fence)
Lying outside the fence on the west side Weaver, Mattie L. Nov 29, 1874 Aug 24, 1890 (wife of J. W.) Tomblinson, J. W. Aug 17, 1820 Jun 6, 1893 Tomblinson, Mary Y. Dec 31, 1835 Sep 12, 1912 (both stones broken)
Editor's Notes: James Wilson Weaver, Chickasaw by marriage, Roll # 456, age 43 (1902)
obtained patent #20968 Oct 21, 1904 in what is now Stephens County Oklahoma.
Mary Y. Tomblinson, Chickasaw by marriage Roll #498, age 67
(in 1902) obtained patent # 17285 Nov 12, 1904
in what is now Stephens County Oklahoma.
The Rutledge/Barnes/Colbert connection eludes me.
My "best" guess is that Mary J. Barnes, nee Rutledge, was the
mother of Burton A. Barnes who married Mary Eliza Colbert Chickasaw Roll #3691
who patented in Stephens County Oklahoma.
