Pickaway County OhArchives Cemeteries.....Ritter Cemetery - Complete Survey ************************************************ Copyright.

It is in Ringgold, OH, north of State Route 188, accessible by taking Ringgold Northern Road to Hagerty Road. Turn east and proceed about 0.3 miles to the end of Hagerty Road. The cemetery sits on the left. There is a small gravel area there, which may actually be a turn around, but it is usable for parking. A small sign on a post announces the cemetery. The stones are a short walk, approximately 50 yards. Large sandstone blocks are still in place around part of the cemetery. Many stones are down, some stacked, some moved to the stone wall around the edge of the cemetery. There are a number of stones no longer legible due to weathering. The cemetery was recorded for the Pickaway County Genealogical Society in 1999 by Paul Mayberry. I have listed the recorded information from Mayberry's work, and indicated if I was able to find and photograph the stone. There were a few stones I located and photographed that Mayberry had marked NS. Several of these were stones moved to the edge of the cemetery or stones stacked and not in place as grave markers. Some were difficult to read, and only "legible" with the aid of computer enhancement or enlargement. I have indicated in my listing which stones have been photographed and are available on line in digital image.
