Hello, List! My sister, Pat, and I have been taking pictures and inventorying the visible headstones at Rentie Grove Historical Cemetery, located at about 95th and South Harvard in Tulsa, Tulsa County, Oklahoma. Rentie Grove was established as a community cemetery back in 1904, as part of the Rentie Grove Community, which was a primarily black community just to the east of Jenks, where I live. Many of the children that lived in Rentie Grove were brought into the Jenks School system back in the 1950s. Their families and their community are very much a part of Jenks History. Pat and I, while hoping to get the entire cemetery inventoried before long, have just started at the front rows and gone up and down photographing headstones. I don't have an "official listing" to identify those unmarked graves. I'm in the process now of adding hyperlinks to the names we do have to take you to the photographs. Please visit our site, "Kinfolk Korner" at: <A HREF="http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~kinfolkkorner">http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~kinfolkkorner</A> And, as always, if you have any additions, corrections or information that might enhance these new pages, please feel free to speak out! We LOVE to get "help." Have a wonderful holiday season. Blessings, Susan Strain <>< "Kinfolk Korner"

Tried to go to your site and it would not open. Will keep the address and try again later. Do you or anyone know anything about the burial of Indian or part Indian people in the early 1900's in Oklahoma. My children's great-grandmother, Edna (Morgan( Thomas) wife of William Lewis Thomas Sr. was born 1885 in Iowa and died 6 April 1911 in Skiatook, Osage County, Okla. and we cannot locate where she is buried. We thought perhaps because she was part Indian that there was a private burial grounds in the area and have written to all the Cemeteries in and around Skiatook without locating the grave. Any suggestions or assistance will be appreciated. Marian Dingman
