Lincoln Co., OK - Cemeteries: Mills Cemetery ******************************************************* This file was contributed for use in the USGenWeb by: Sheryl Moore USGenWeb Archives. Copyright. All rights reserved http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ******************************************************* MILLS CEMETARY Located 1/8 mile east of Pottawatomie Co. Line on N.E. 36th, one mile north of 62 hwy, Lincoln County, OK This a very small, neglected cemetary on the north side of N.E 36th, with 44 graves that I was able to find. It is fenced across the front with a pipe and cable fence, and has a sucker- rod gate with the nameboard above. The rows are not straight, and there is sometimes 50 feet or more between graves in a row. Several of the graves have been vandalized, and some markers are partially or totaly unreadable. If there is a line (_) in the transcription, it is an unreadable letter or number. The rows run north to south.
