Quinlan Cemetery
FORMED: ca 1900....abandoned and used as a field for crops about 1905 LOCATION: 1/4 MILES NORTH, 1/4 MILE EAST OF QUINLAN, OK. WOODWARD CO, OK MAP: UNKNOWN CANVASSED: INFORMATION GIVEN BY MRS. NITA ROBERTSON, MANCHESTER IOWA. It is remembered that - _ someone remembered as just Mrs. SCOTT had a sister (name unknown) buried there. Also several infant's that their families were passing through the area. It's possible that several other graves were there, but there is no one at this time that can remember their names. The cemetery was believed to have been abandoned for the reason being that it was bordered on the East side by the Santa Fe Railroad tracks and the peacefulness one relates to the death of a loved one could not be achieved by the jar and noise of the passing trains. The land was included by the owner to be a part of what would be useable for pasture or crops, so eventually every mark of the graves have been erased.
