Cemetery History |
Little remains of this old
Methodist Graveyard other than a couple of stones and stone fragments propped up
with steel fence posts. The Register of Interments for the
Miami Cemetery in Corwin lists at least 60 burials that were said to have
been removed from Ridgeville to the
Miami Cemetery. The bulk of the removals were done in 1870 with a few
others in 1872, 1880, 1882, 1900 & 1911. Three of those were said to be from "Babbitts
Graveyard in Ridgeville." The rest simply say Ridgeville. The earliest original
burial in those removals was for
Anna Hays, who died 9 Jul 1825. The Register of Interments entry for
Martha J. Hayes does not contain any dates but it indicates that she is
the oldest burial in the Miami Cemetery. This would suggest that she died
sometime before 1822. See
List of Removals. |
