Reid Cemetery

Okete, Lincoln County, Missouri

 

Submitted by Russell M. Reid
Louisville, KY

The Reid Cemetery contains the graves of several early settlers in the area around Okete, including those of Alexander Reid and Jane Shannon and their descendants. This cemetery was once part of the property of their son, Thomas Shanon Reid. During my childhood, the remainder of that property, just across the road from the cemetery, was still owned by Thomas’s grandson (my own grandfather), Salem Shannon Reid.

This list was transcribed from an unpublished list compiled (compiler unknown) about 1971. For clarification, I have supplied additional information from family and other sources in italic red. Updates and corrections to the original list have been provided by Barbara Wing on the basis of a visit to the cemetery on October 2, 2000. Although many have assisted me in identifying the individuals buried here, any errors are my own responsibility. Please send any corrections or additional information to me at r.reid@ix.netcom.com.

For a century, "Ekie" Frazier was a neighbor to the Reid families around

Okete, and to the Reid Cemetery. I am told that he could identify from

memory many of the children buried here in unmarked graves. Sadly, that

memory is no more.
