         Burial Practices - - Followed by a Listing of Cemeteries Containing Delaware-Lenape Persons

A description of the burial of a Delaware chief's wife in 1762 clearly indicates the importance of feasting and the redistribution of goods, particularly European trade goods, in the burial ritual David I. Bushnell, Jr.,  Native Cemeteries and Forms of Burial East of the Mississippi River. Bureau of American Ethnology Bulletin 71, (Washington, D.C., 1920), p. 22. As with the Algonquians, burial was in a cemetery located outside the village, and graves were marked with painted or decorated posts. The deceased was wrapped and covered to avoid contact with the dirt. At the end of the funeral procession from the village to the cemetery area, "two stout men [carried] loads of European manufactured goods upon their backs." After the grave was covered and surrounded by a palisade, food was prepared and passed out.  Then presents were distributed the many things which had been carried by the two men in the rear of the procession. Those who had rendered assistance were given the most valuable and highly prized pieces, but no one was omitted. . . . At dusk after the burial, a kettle of food was placed upon the grave, and this was renewed every evening for three weeks. (Heckewelder, quoted in Bushnell 1920:22) 

The Delawares also put a tobacco pouch, knife, tinder box, tobacco and pipe, bow and arrow, gun powder and shot, skins and cloth for clothes, paint, a small bag of Indian corn or dried bilberries, sometimes the kettle, hatchet, and other furniture of the deceased, into the grave, supposing that the departed spirits would have the same wants and occupations in the land of souls. (Loskiel, quoted in George C. and George H Pepper,  Exploration of a Munsee Cemetery near Montague, New Jersey. Contributions from the Museum of the American Indian, vol. 2, Heye Foundation (New York, 1915), p. 17.

Some of the earlier burial practices are noted in the obituaries of Ruby Cranor, Some Old Delaware Cemeteries [in Oklahoma]:

Tom Buffalo - Tom Buffalo was buried a at the Delaware Cemetery, Sunday and there, as usual, 'amongst the relatives and friends he left, a hole was cut in the coffin to let his spirit out...Tom Buffalo was an honest Indian whose blood had never mixed with the white race, and he had never joined the white man's church. Joining the white man's church dispels the traditions of the full blood and they affect beautiful metallic coffins -- but this who die in the religion of the tribe prefer to be buried in wood. Even the corner is sawed off a wooden coffin and in case of a metallic box, punch hole are put-in--to let the spirit. 30 June 1925.
William Easey - ...As customary with the Delawares no burying one of the brothers, the grave will not be dug, nor no space decided upon until the body arrives at the cemetery. Six Indians will then start excavating for the grave while Indian women prepare a feast, consisting of chicken, pork, beef and other delicacies. which will be eaten at the head of the grave. With his head to the east William Easey will then be buried. A hole will be bored in the "box" to let the spirit out-then the juice of berries, which makes a bright red, will be painted around the hole. The services will constitute nearly the day. Clothes of the decease man will be buried with his body. with the exception of a few which will be given to those who dig the grave. Chief Elkhair, sky pilot for the Delawares, will preach the funeral in the Delaware language. March 5, 1927.
Josie Elkhair - ...Taps will soon be sounded` for the last of the full bloods of the Delaware tribe and the tribal ceremonies will soon be history, since the younger generation does not observe these rites. Mrs. Elkhair died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Com Davis living near Post Oak last Monday. The grave was dug by full blood Indians. The casket containing the body was deposited beside the grave and was kept open until the last minute before lowering it into the ground. While the ,men dug the grave the women prepared the feast. Chief Elkhair chanted the burial service in the language of his tribe. When the grave was made ready a hole was drilled in the corner of the casket to allow the spirit to escape, according to tribal traditions. The aged mother of the dead woman placed all her daughters clothes in the grave as soon as the casket was lowered and then distributed her personal belongings to those who had assisted in the last days of her sickness and to the pall bearers. Immediately after this service the food was eaten by the entire assemblage and all dispersed. If the dead person had been a male the feasting would have occurred two or three days. [!] Friday, January 12, 1923.
George Falleaf - The funeral today at 10 o'clock at Cotton Creek Cemetery of George Falleaf 77, honorary chief of the Delaware tribe. The eulogy will be delivered in the Delaware language by Charles Elkhair. The grave will not be dug until the body arrives at the cemetery. A hole will be cut to one corner of the casket to permit the spirit to rise. Only tribal members and whites who are friends of the family will attend. Following the ceremony, members of the tribe will hold will hold a feast, sitting around the grave. They will leave some of the food on the grave. The. one of the nearest relatives to the deceased will gather leaves and twigs and build a fire near the grave. After the fire burns a while it will be extinguished - indicating it is the last camp fire for the deceased. After 10 days another feast will be held and food again will be left on the grave. Examiner, September 12, 1939.
Frank McEwin - Frank McEwin's spirit will arise from his grave on the Caney northwest of Dewey next Friday afternoon and eat his last portion of earthly food with the remainder of the tribe of Delawares who will be on hand, probably 300 strong to bid his farewell on his journey to the last-the fairest pasture of the Happy Hunting Grounds...The funeral rites for the Delaware who adheres to the old customs of the tribe are original with the tribe and consists of a long ceremony. When the body is first buried with all the clothes of the deceased stuffed in the coffin, the tribe has a big feast, leaving much food on top of the grave for the spirit to eat. A hole is cut in the coffin then into [the] rough box, and a long stick is inserted into the rough box hole. The dirt is tamped around this stick. At the end of twelve days...the spirit is supposed to come forth when the stick is pulled out of the ground. opening the passage from the coffin. The Delaware tribe has arranged for the purchase of a 200 pound hog for this occasion and bounteous other food stuffs will be on hand. Members of all other tribes in this region, which for most part consist of the Cherokees and the Osages, will not be welcomed at this feast, it is understood. This last feast is reserved for the full blood members of the tribe only, it is asserted. Morning Examiner, November 20, 1921.

BIG CABIN CEMETERY (Big Cabin, Oklahoma)

This cemetery is located  1.3 miles west of Big Cabin, southwest of Vinita,  and 53 miles northeast off Tulsa off Route 66 in Craig County, Oklahoma. It is at Latitude 363159N and Longitude 0951341W.

The Big Cabin Cemetery was created officially when the Cherokee Nation sold the town 9.16 acres of land lying west of the Missouri-Kansas and Texas railroad right-of-way for the sum of $45. The money was raised from donations and pie suppers. Craig County court house records further show that the town was given a deed for another parcel of land for the sum of $4,574 in 1982 to enlarge the cemetery area. The cemetery has been described by tourists passing through as an unusually pretty area. ("Big Cabin," History of Craig County).

DEWEY, OKLAHOMA DELAWARE CEMETERY

This cemetery, known as "the Delaware Cemetery," is located in Section 7, Township 24 north, Range 13 East, and is two miles north and one and one-half miles west of Dewey, Oklahoma. This strictly a Delaware Indian Cemetery. In 1904 the land surrounding it was allotted to Lillie Williams, but the land was set aside as a burial ground and known then as the "Sam Williams Cemetery." Don Tyler became the owner of the land in 1829 and in Deed Book 68, page 199, is filed and recorded a deed from Don Tyler to the County, a plot containing the cemetery for the express use of the Delaware. This is a peaceful spot, situated on a high rolling hill covered with majestic oak trees on the bank of the Caney. It is about a mile down-river from the forks of the two Caney Rivers. many Delaware families who have had much to do with the settling of Washington County are buried here. (his item was taken from an unknown book, Chapter III, "The Delawares Come to the Area, p. 10.)

The cemetery itself  is located just inside in Leavenworth County, but many of the persons buried in the cemetery were from Fall Leaf and other communities shown in this map; click this link: Eudora, KS map from MapQuest.


Entrance to the Delaware Cemetery near Eudora, Kansas (Tom Hahn Photo)

This is a small, pleasant, well-maintained cemetery. Eudora, Douglas County  is a small town  located east of Lawrence, Kansas off of Kansas Route 10. From the Municipal Building at Main and Sixth in downtown Eudora, take County Route 1061 a mile or so north to the Kansas River, where cross the bridge and go about one-half mile on Leavenworth County Route 1 to the cemetery on the east side of the road. There is a country lane on the north side of the cemetery. There are only a few burial markers. Not all burials are necessarily those of Delaware persons. In a plaque in the cemetery is a memorial to the Delaware Indians, tracing a bit of their history. It says, in part, "We will have peace as long as the moon will rise and set on the Kaw." It reads also, in part, "We honor the early settlers who came here to build homes, schools and churches and respect the government of our country. This plot of land was set aside for a burial plot and some of the settlers are buried in the northeast corner. But we do not have a record of their names. The Indians intermarried with the German settlers and most of the names listed here are part Delaware Indian."  Those with a grave marker but no inscription are noted by an asterisk* The graves with a grave marker are in capital  letters:

GILSTRAP CEMETERY (Near Bartlesville, Oklahoma)

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Gilstrap Cemetery is located approximately six miles south of Bartlesville, Oklahoma on Silver Lake Road on the Tyler-Irwin farm, that is, in  Section 7, Range13 East, Township 25 North 13 East,  in Washington County, Oklahoma.   It is likely that the cemetery was disturbed in the creation of the pond in the area. A listing from Ruby Cranor, Talking Tombstones, Pioneers of Washington County, p. 122, contains more data than another listing we have which says it is p. 126. The maps seem to have come from the latter listing. That listing says: "For these pages on Washington County cemeteries, credit is respectfully given to Ruby Cranor, The records preserved of these three burial places are but a small portion of her efforts to preserve county history."

Gilstrap Cemetery No. 1:

 

These are the listings from the "p.126 of the document of the unknown author:

"Harold R. Farrar, a researcher in Washington County, probably contributed some of the data.

At present there are no grave markers for the occupants of the cemetery except for three stones which were removed to the face of an adjacent farm pond. This is the cemetery in which Betsy Wilaquenaho is thought to be buried. Researcher: Vickie Wilkins/Swiftwater Hahn

The Grinter Chapel Cemetery is located adjacent to the Grinter Chapel United Methodist Church located at 78th & Swartz Road, Kansas City, Wyandotte County, Kansas.

This surname listing was prepared by the Wyandotte County Genealogical Society in July 1993. A complete listing of the cemetery will be entered after the listing has been received. Only a part of the burials are Lenape-Delaware. The Lenape-Delaware burials will be designated as such when they are sorted out. Editor.

MUNSEE CEMETERY (Ottawa, Franklin County, Kansas)
Cemetery data entered 26 June 2002 and Revised 2 July 2002

This rural, attractive cemetery is located 6.6 miles west of Ottawa, Franklin County, Kansas. There are many burials here but only a small number of grave markers. (Photo by Thomas Swiftwater Hahn)

These mature cedar trees, perhaps dating from the beginning of the cemetery in 1859, are in double rows forming a large cross. (Photo by Thomas  Swiftwater Hahn)

To reach the cemetery from the south end of Ottawa, Kansas on Main Street at 23rd, turn right on paved Labette Road and go 3.0 miles to graveled Kentucky Road where turn left and proceed 1.0 mile to Kingman Road. Turn right on Kingman Road and go 2.0 miles where you cross Indiana Road. Proceed across Indiana Road for .6 mile up a hill and to the right to the cemetery, a total of 6.6 miles from the beginning of the directions. An attractive stone marker at the entrance gate says MUNSEE INDIAN CEMETERY 1859. For more information about this cemetery, contact Munsee Debbie Badders Telephone 785-242-5614 in Ottawa.

PRAIRIE CEMETERY (Leavenworth County, Kansas)

In Bonner Springs, Kansas, take K-32 (called Front Street in Bonner Springs) west about five miles. Turn right on Loring Road. Go to and through the intersection of 158th Street (Leavenworth County Road 2) until your first left turn. Proceed until you can turn left again and drive straight into the cemetery. This information is from Joyce Lawrence, whose 4th great grandmother, Margaret Perry McCleary is buried there. She says that her third great grandfather, Elias McCleary, purchased the Lenape cemetery some time after her death on 26 March 1884. Margaret died at the home of her son, William McCleary in Leavenworth, Kansas. Joyce's great-great grandfather . Thomas Jefferson McCleary, may also be buried in this cemetery. She says that there is no actual town, but there are farm houses along the way and that there are many old graves in the cemetery as well as new ones.


The photograph taken by Bern O'Malley was provided by B. J. Ryan

This is an attractive cemetery has many vandalized and broken grave markers. The small rectangular stone in the photograph next to the large grave marker says W. H.  That is probably the marker for  William Honeywell. We think that marker for Sarah (Owl) Honeywell may be a marker next to his. Their childrens' names are on nearby markers. There is also a marker for Elnora, probably born in 1856 and died in 1888, the wife of Eli Moore Honeywell. She probably was born in 1856 and died in 1888. According to the Wyandotte Gazette for 9 July 1875, Eli Honeywell married Nora Myers. There are also markers for the Eli Moore Honeywell children.  We are looking for more information on the possibility of other Lenape-Delaware burials here. We welcome additions and further information. The researchers on this cemetery are Joyce BooDotte@aol.com or Betty Jane Ryan  bejryan@aol.com  (Kansas Delaware) who provided the photograph.

SILVER LAKE CEMETERY (Bartlesville, Oklahoma)

Located in Section 30, surrounded by the Hillcrest Country Club Golf Course, South of Bartlesville, this cemetery was known as the Harry Arnold Delaware Cemetery.  It was established before Allotment soon after the Delaware people came here in 1867.  It is well kept and still being used. The information for the Silver Lake Cemetery is a compilation of data from Ruby Cranor's "Talking Tombstones" and data gathered by Raymonda Sarcoxie Allen, November 9, 1980. Used by permission, with many thanks for their hard work.
