Lyon Cemetery - Oklahoma County, Oklahoma Submitted by: Mahlon Erickson DATE Return to Oklahoma County Archives: http://www.usgwarchives.net/ok/oklahoma/oklahoma.html ===================================================================== USGENWEB NOTICE Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ===================================================================== From the Daily Oklahoman Sat 22 Sept 1956 p2: Lyons Cemetery in NW part of City…more than 50 burials…5 acre plot…trustees of cemetery ate Methodist Church…cemetery near NW 63rd and May west of the Baptist Orphans Home on the south side of NW 63rd…warranty deed by Mary E. Lyon 1889 to the Methodist Church. In the spread sheet attached, I have a comments column with info from stones and a second comments column for additional info I found. The Vern Spencer Miller listed with obit is most likely the Spencer Miller on the list. A monument in the plot reads "Dedicated to the memory of Mary Lyons and other Oklahoma Pioneers: Martin Mott Robert West Homer West Velma Stevens Doris Stevens Harold Stevens Barbara Buck C.B. Buck ------- Beadner -------- Martin -------- Stevens -------- Martin -------- Finley Margaret Greenhaw The names listed above are in order as on the monument. The number of names matches the number of empty spaces (unmarked graves?) between and around the marked graves. These graves were moved from the original cemetery to Rose Hill Cemetery/Burial Park in the south end of the "Repose" Section near Grand Blvd. People at the cemetery said (on the phone) that the graves were moved about 1972 and that the original cemetery was where Burlington Coat Factory was now. I believe it was moved to make way for French Market Mall.
