All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ========================================================================== Cooprider Cemetery is located in Section 30 Township 24N Range 11W In Alfalfa County. It is located on the SE corner at the junction of Highway 45 and Highway 8. It is located 9 miles west on Highway 45 from Helena or 2 miles east and 3 miles south on Highway 45 from Carmen. This cemetery is sometimes referred to as the Livingston Cemetery. The Flanagan's were the first family living on this land. Their neighbors helped them build a sod house. That night a rain and windstorm came. The neighbors checked on them the following day and found the ridgepole had collapsed under the weight of the sod. The couple with their child had suffocated. This was the start of this cemetery. Using the Alfalfa County Oklahoma Cemeteries book as an aid, the cemetery was surveyed and submitted by Paul & Verla Blackledge on July 26, 2003.
