This U.S. Coast& Geodetic Survey reference mark disk is found just outside the low brick wall on the west side of Memorial Park Cemetery in Edmond, Oklahoma. There is ample parking nearby in the cemetery. Part of a grouping of four disks, the stamping "BRITTON NO. 1 1954" (indicating that this is Reference Mark #1) is still clear.
If you look at the logs on the datasheet "Web Link" below you will find photos of the nearby triangulation station; however, I was unable to locate that station, nor could I find Reference Mark 2 or the azimuth mark further south. Perhaps you will have better luck!
The coordinates posted here differ from those given in the FJ0866 data sheet (the waymark coordinates are of this disk, not the triangulation station).
