River Hill Cemetery (Outlaw Cemetery)
Catoosa, Rogers County, Oklahoma

Lat: 36° 12' 32"N, Lon: 95° 43' 40"W

Contributed by Charlotte Keen, Jan 15, 2003 [jkeen14660@aol.com]. Total records = 12.

From Catoosa go north on Hwy 66. It is the same exit, as the entrance to Molly's Landing Restaurant. Turn west off of Hwy 66 on Historic Hwy 66, follow the road to the end. It is on private property, and the new owner will not allow entry.

Some of the local people in Rogers County call River Hill Cemetery, Outlaw Cemetery. No one seems to know why.

I walked and recorded the cemetery in July 2002.
