Except in a few cases, we only recorded names and dates, and not the full inscriptions. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Dedication: This is submitted as a way of saying "Thanks" to another person in another County in another state that provided us with information from a graveyard there. The following is a listing of graves recorded by my wife and me during a visit to the Caney cemetery on 23 Sep 2000. By no means are all graves listed; we were looking only for particular families. There is a published list of all graves in this cemetery in the series of books about Oklahoma cemeteries which we saw in the Tahlequah library, but we have not found any on-line information about Caney cemetery and thought you might use this listing. We signed the visitors book and noted that Diana E. Sanders 27326 E. 804 Rd, Welling, OK, 74471-2336 is the listed contact for the cemetery. ***** Tommy Jones 13 Nov 1947 - 07 May 1991 SP4 U.S. Army Viet Nam Katie Jones 08 Oct 1918 - married Geo.
