A personal visit to the Highland cemetery and an interview with the office staff revealed a register listing NBG with no location. When time permits we plan to search for older records which may either reveal the location or allow us to make an educated quess as to the location and walk the property reading gravestones. Highland is a large cemetery with old and new graves in the same lots. Alonzo Lucius Adair - No death certificate was found in the county or state records. On a personal visit to Hugh Lowe Cemetery we were fortunate to find the couple who maintain this and several other local cemeteries on a weekly basis. The wife produced a register compiled by the Pittsburg Co, Oklahoma Genealogical Society which lists the location. (A copy of this publication is now in our personal library). Photographs of gravestone taken by JYS and WS in June 1996.
