"This small family cemetery sits on top of a hill on a gravel road located 4 miles south of Prairie City and approximately 1/4 mile east of county road S6G. It is fenced in and well kept. Although there have been no burials since 1910, the cemetery is a mix of old and modern stones. There are two stones for George Rinehart and his son George W.; the original old style stones and a more modern obelisk stone for the family which also includes birth and death dates for George's wife, Elizabeth. The family name is spelled RHINEHART on the obelisk.
