Joseph A. Wood and Joseph C. Wood Wagoner County Oklahoma
I am searching for the Cemetery in Wagoner County Oklahoma
Where Joseph C. Wood, age about 10 yrs., who died about 1906 from an accidental gunshot wound,that he got while he and his sister were playing with a loaded gun they had found in their barn. Also, his father Joseph A. Wood, age about 40yrs., who died about 1909 from "lock of the bowels" are buried. They are said to be buried side by side.
I have been told that they were both buried by the County.
But, in 1906, there was no county, since Oklahoma didn't become a State until 1907. So I am assuming they were buried by the city, or by some other means, Church or some other charity. I was also told that this particular cemetery has flooded several times over the years.
Anyone have a clue as to what the name of this cemetery might be and where it might be located? Who would hold the records for these burials?
Any help Appreciated.
Mary
