| Name of Cemetery: Olde Athens Cemetery (Riverside)
Athens Township Read By: Lyle Rockwell Date Read: 17 March 2011 Typed By: Lyle Rockwell Location: Athens, corner of Main & Edward St. Other comments: Major work was done by John Morley during the 1970 & 80s to fix tombstones, order & place military tombstones provided by the VA. Cemetery read from front to back in sequence. I did not find tombstones of numerous people listed on the Morley/Saxon list, but did photograph all present day remaining stones.
