Longbird & Quinton Family Cemetery
Adair County, Oklahoma

© 2005-06 by: Martha Jones-McGinnis-Real



The headstones were worn and hard to read or rub. I had listed two stones as Bird, I now know the two stones were for Longbird.
This cemetery is in Southern Adair Co., OK., at the Sequoyah Co., OK line. It is located about 12 south of Stilwell OK on HGY 59, turn west on the south exit for Nellie Mays Greasy School Road, travel on west about 2 miles past the Fire Station and bridge, keep going west after stop sign, turn south on the first dirt road past the Fire Station and bridge, before you get to the Church House. Go about 1.5 miles south, cross Greasy creek, turn left. The cemetery is over the hill on private land, I got permission to go in. There was several graves marked with a rock/stone.
The grave for son of W & C Bigfeather is in a field on the left before you cross Greasy creek. This was the only visible grave. Someone has put cattle guard panels around the grave site to keep livestock off the grave and stone.
