The land then changed hands several times until 1945 when Charlie Olson purchased it.
Tudor Cemetery is near the NW corner of the property on top of a hill. The cemetery is partly
in a clearing and partly in wooded area. Buried there are some of the pioneers of the area.
Some of the names are Tudor, Sweat, and Ward.
One of the early pioneers buried in the Tudor Cemetery is Hiram Perkins Sweat.
He brought his family to Oklahoma in 1889, settling 6 miles east of Arcadia.
A book titled "Remember Arcadia" by Marjorie Baker contains a biography of Hiram and Lutitia Sweat.
