A photo of Otho G. DURANT's tombstone from the Oakwood (on South Morton Street) Cemetery in Okmulgee, Okmulgee County, Oklahoma has been uploaded to this website's VIRTUAL CEMETERY:
http://www.genealogy.com/VG/vcem_search.html
It indicates he was born May 4, 1886 and died March 3, 1899. INSCRIPTION: Son of A. & O. Durant - In My Fathers House Are Many Mansions.
Oklahoma became a state in 1907 and before then, Okmulgee was a popular town in Creek Nation, Indian Territory. This cemetery was recently vandalized and many headstones knocked over and broken. I photographed many of the markers before further damage is done and these early citizens' graves forgotten.
I am not related, nor am I seeking further information. Just passing this info along.
