History lives on in the monuments and stories at the final resting places of some of the figures whose impact on Muskogee is still felt today. Learn some of the stories to honor those citizens and discover the art and architecture represented in Muskogee's Historic Greenhill Cemetery. - (weather permitting)

Established in 1894, Greenhill Cemetery, is the final resting place for former and prominent Muskogee citizens among whom are: Charles N. Haskell, first Governor of Oklahoma; Miss Alice Robertson, Oklahoma's first Congresswoman and the second woman elected to the United States Congress; and Alexander Posey, outstanding newspaperman and poet laureate of the Creek Indians.
