"Mr. Lafayette Owens, a daughter of Scotland and Rebecca Hawkins, was interviewed by a WPA writer on May 17, 1937, in Sulphur, OK, where she was quoted as saying: "Father and Mother are buried at Nebo, south of Sulphur, in a family graveyard. There are twelve graves. We do not have any tombstones. There are small rock houses built over their graves."
