TWIN GROVE CEMETERY east of Checotah

The following information submitted by Bob Foster <rlfost@campusnet.org>

Directions: The old Central High School is shown on the Warner NW, OKLA
USGS topo (1:24000 scale), Beck TWP near BM 707. The house shown
directly due west of it across the unnamed road is or was Virgil Foster's.
Proceeding due east from the high school on the dirt road (I believe part
of it is now paved) from the crossroads, follow the road for about a
mile into the hills. The cemetery is off the road to the left, I think . Keep a
sharp lookout, it is easy to miss.
