Johnston, OK - Norton Cemetery, near Mannsville OK ------------------------------------------------------------------ Submitted by: Leroy & Jimmie McDaniel e-mail: lwmac@brightok.net ------------------------------------------------------------------ NORTON CEMETERY HEADSTONE INSCRIPTIONS as copied April 29, 1979 by Allene Banks Haney arranged in alpha order by Jimmie McDaniel April 14, 1998 updated January 8, 2000 from a list compiled November, 1995 by DeLois Coffman Fry. The caretaker of the cemetery, Paul Elledge, has also been very helpful in making contributions to this update. I will endeavor to keep the listings updated by obituaries. Information received from Lilla Renfro Slater on several unmarked graves of her RENFRO/RENFROW ancestors. Lilla can be contacted at: lilla@earthlink.net If anyone has information to add to any burials not listed within this page please send me the information and I'll be glad to update the listing. As there is only one section to the Norton Cemetery I will list only the Row Number.
