OAKLAWN CEMETERY, Tulsa, Oklahoma
This burial ground has been used for years. Several years before the city of Tulsa took it
over, which in 1906, Dan Patton, a pioneer citizen of Tulsa, and a civil engineer,
laid out the grounds for the cemetery.
This cemetery occupies 20 acres of ground
and is bounded on the north by 8th street, on the east by Peoria Ave., on the south by
11th Street and on the west by Madison Street, or Midland Valley Railroad right-of-way.
When Tulsa took this cemetery over in
1906, there were 387 graves. A large number of these didn't have markers and do not even
today as some of the bodies now buried here were removed from a burial ground on West 2nd
Street, Tulsa,a near Frisco Street. This plat or parcel of ground is now occupied by
building and Streets. This was Tulsa's first burial ground. This cemetery contains the
graves of some of the most prominent of the early settlers, some being Indians. It is well
cared for at this time by the city, under the supervision of one of the city
commissioners.
