Cobb County Georgia Cemetery Ruff Family File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by E. L. Daves" Table of Contents page: http://www.usgwarchives.net/ga/cobb.htm Georgia Table of Contents: http://www.usgwarchives.net/ga/gafiles.htm RUFF Cemetery Georgia, Cobb County, Smyrna, March 15, 2002 On Concord Road About 2 miles from South Cobb Drive (Hwy 280) About 1/10 mile from the CSX/Silver Comet bike trail one- lane overpass. About 5/10 mile from the historical Concord Covered Bridge. There is only a small road sign marking the site which is 100ft off the road. We parked across the road in a pullout lane for a subdivision. There is a creosoted fence along the road and the cemetery will be behind the fence in an oak grove on top of a small hill. It is overgrown with young tree sprouts and saw briars and will be hard to see in the summer. There were three unmarked fieldstones and we couldn't tell if there were any more unmarked graves because of the thick cover of leaves. ****************************************************************** In Loving Memory of Our Loved One: Mildred Inez Ruff Bruton, b.
