Bio

I researched professionally for individuals all over the United States for 7 years, in 3 counties in Oklahoma. I later went to work in 2005 at the Bartlesville Area History Museum, Bartlesville, Oklahoma. I am now retired. . .
I love history, and helping families make connection to any loved ones that have passed on. I have been a findagrave volunteer for ten years and I am happy to locate any headstones in Ramona Cemetery in Ramona, Oklahoma. I am now retired from the Bartlesville Area History Museum.
However, please I will not volunteer to look for headstones in the Ramona area in the following Cemeteries:
Bivins Cemetery- Rural Ramona; Nothing left, very poor trail that probably no longer exists-abandoned many years ago. Even if then there were only 3 stones left in the late 1990s. Some bodies were moved to the Ramona Cemetery. Ceasar Cemetery-in 1950s there was flood control lakes built and as a consequence the damn on the Double Creek was done away with. Therefore the lake more than likely now covers the almost the whole cemetery, no longer accessible. Rural Ramona
Friend Cemetery- there are only two graves, husband and wife William and Doris Friend. This cemetery is a family cemetery on private property. There are no headstones that I could find.
Lyman (Lymon) Cemetery- there is nothing to find-
Riddle Cemetery-In 1996 there were only four stones with information on them remaining. This is also on private property, Rural Ramona
Stick Creek Cemetery- an old Black or colored cemetery on private property, long abandoned, a pond was built around it and in all probability has overtaken the remaining graves. In 1996 only four or five stones still remained.
My husband is 80 years old and has a photographic memory; he can tell you how to get to any of the cemeteries and has historical information on almost anything that occurred in this part of Washington County Oklahoma. His Quote "Without a past, we have no future."G. Crabtree
