The Oregon Burial Site Guide lists "IOOF [Old]" as an aka for the two
following cemeteries as cited by Les:

The Dart Cemetery has several aka's involving the words Molalla,
Memorial, and Prairie as well as IOOF, Odd Fellows, and Teasel Creek and
is most likely to be the cemetery of interest. It is 2 miles south of
Molalla on the east side of Wilhoit Road, T3S R2E S20.

The Russelville Cemetery is about 7 miles south of Molalla up in the
foothills off of Sawtell Road.

Godspeed!  Happy Holidays!
