DEATH AT THRIFTON. George B. Long, aged 81 years, a pioneer resident of Thrifton, died at his home Monday. He is survived by his wife and three sons. Funeral services were held at the cemetery chapel at 2 o’clock Wednesday afternoon conducted by Rev. C. C. Kennedy. Additional Comments: Thrifton was located on State Route 41 in Ross County, Ohio, about 2 miles east of Greenfield, Ohio. State Route 41 was relocated several years ago, and now no longer goes through Thrifton. Since then, Thrifton, except for a few houses, has pretty much disappeared. What is left of it is currently located at the junction of Thrifton Road and Rapid Forge Road in southwestern Buckskin Township.
