The USGS site only includes cemeteries that the USGS knows about and has included on their maps. There are over 70 cemeteries and burial sites in Payne County. The USGS only identifies 45 of them, and of those, two are incorrectly named. So, even though the site can be an excellent starting point, don't assume it has all cemeteries listed. The local genealogy/history society may be a better bet.
