In October 2010 found new sign at the cemetery that says Ripley Township Cemetery.
note: this cemetery is near Big Prairie, but not in any municipality (Holmes Co., Ohio).
"Beginning at Big Prairie, go East a mile until reaching Township Road 512. Turn South and proceed about 800 ft until you reach a wooded area. There on the West about 50 ft above the road is an old cemetery with many names."

In 2010, we found a gravel parking area on a steep hill.
In front of the gravel is a chained gate-we were able to walk around the gate/fence. Continue to walk up the hill to the neat cemetery. Many stones unreadable, many broken, many missing.
The cemetery is located in Ripley Township, Holmes County, Ohio, and is # 5668 (Baptist Old Settlers Cemetery / Joe Boley Cemetery / Old Wells Cemetery) in "Ohio Cemeteries 1803-2003", compiled by the Ohio Genealogical Society.
