Daniel Perryman Burial Ground, founded
before the civil war by early settlers. Four Miles South of Redbird, Wagoner County,
Oklahoma.
This burial ground was situated on what
was then unoccupied territory between the claims of Daniel Perryman and Lafayette
Marshall. At the present time there is no inclosure around the plot and the land around it
is cultivated, leaving the plot a space about twelve feet in width by twenty-five feet in
length, grown up in briers and weeds. Unable to make any estimate as to the number of
graves that were there. No doubt there are several graves that have been lost and plowed
over in farming the surrounding land. There is only one marker with inscriptions in the
plot and that is in the form of a small monument which is of marble, a square tapering
shaft about five feet high with six inscriptions on the four sides.
