From Eldorado, Oklahoma, drive west on State Highway 6 to the
Southwest corner of Eldorado. Turn South on county road N1850 which
is paved. The cemetery is approximately 1/2 mile on the west side
of the road.
Eldorado Cemetery was established in 1889 and is located Southwest
of Eldorado. This cemetery was associted with the Eldorado community
in Southwest Oklahoma before Statehood. Land for the cemetery
was donated by J.M Baker in 1889. Mr. Baker's wife, Mary Elizabeth
Baker, was the first person buried in the Eldorado Cemetery.
I surveyed and transcribed this cemetery in 2011-2012. This includes
all existing headstones.
