It is located on a wooded knoll in the Ridgewood Campground, which was
at one time the David Covert Farm. This is on a road leading from Route 89
to Hayt's Corners. 19 of these inscriptions (indicated by an asterisk) were
also collected earlier by Jessie H. Finch, et al, and later published in
Some Cemeteries of the Between the Lakes Country. Any data read by them
which differ from mine are enclosed in parentheses. Additional comments by

"In Memory of" Note: I read these stones on two different occasions, and referred to both handwritten lists when preparing this alphabetical list. Many of the stones are broken &/or toppled over, or totally illegible, or even face-down. I did not see a headstone for Samuel Lane, but there was a footstone saying S.C.L. by the base of a broken-off headstone. List of initials on various footstones, many of which appear to have been moved around, propped on trees, etc.: A.C., A.S., D.W., E. ? M., E.M., J.D., J.L.M., J.W., McM. S., M.K., M.W., P.C., P.S., S.C.L., S.S., W.S.
