		Bentley Indian Cemetery
		Atoka County Cemetery Records 

The Bentley community is located three miles east and nine miles south of 
Atoka, Okla. The cemetery is located across the street north of the Baptist
Church there, and contains two sections. One section is not fenced, and is
referred to by residents as "The Indian Cemetery". It is still in use, as 
two 1980 graves were found in this section. It contains a total of 20 
marked graves and 10 distinguishable unmarked ones.

The other section is under chain-link fence, is very well kept and is still
in use. It contains 275 marked graves and 51 unmarked ones. Both cemeteries
were canvassed February 20, 1980 by Gwen Lawry Walker.
