The Peoria Cemetery, which was established as a burial ground in 1871 for Confederated Peoria tribal leaders, is the only documented cemetery in the United States set aside for such a purpose. The cemetery has been maintained for over 100 years. Its use is restricted to only tribal members and their immediate family. wikipedia.com
The Cemetery was not set aside for burial of tribal leaders. It was originally my uncle Thomas Skye’s allotment and was our Skye family cemetery. Descendants of Thomas Skye later deeded the property to the Tribe for continued interment of tribal members. Under Chief Rodney Arnette, the Cemetery, along with the Peoria Schoolhouse, was placed on the National Register of Historic Places (March 21, 1983). LeAnne Reeves
