This book incudes information from all memorial stones that were available in the summer of 2001 for the Franklin's Comers Cemetery and the Riceville Baptist Cemetery. Here are some details about each cemetery:
- Franklin's Comers Cemetery, Conc. 13, Lot 6 (previously a Methodist Cemetery)
Franklin's Comers Cemetery is located about 1 Km. east of Riceville. A Wesleyan Methodist church was built on the site in 1849 but there were Methodist preachers in the
area at least 15 years prior to this. Many of the earliest settlers in the area are buried here. These include, or probably include, the first settlers in the area, Robert and Mary(Mokeson) Cutt who came in 1820 and shortly afterwards Henry and Mary(Copely) Metcalfe, both families from Royston, south Yorkshire, England. The names on the stones indicate origins primarily from England, Ireland and Scotland.
- Riceville Baptist Cemetery, Con. 13, Lot 8 (No longer used but in good condition when recorded in 2003)
Baptists formed a congregation in 1862. A beautiful little church was built in Riceville village and the cemetery is located behind it. Many of those buried in this cemetery were leaders in the community. No new burials have taken place here for many years.
Book contents include:
- Franklin's Comers Community Cemetery
- Riceville Baptist Cemetery

NOTE about print quality:
GlobalGenealogy.com Inc. entered into a publishing agreement with the Ottawa Branch of the Ontario
Genealogical Society in 2016, to publish current and future books as well as to bring all of their
previously published works back into print. We are pleased to make their books available once again
under our Global Heritage Press imprint. Each book has been reprinted as it was prepared by the volunteers of the Ottawa Branch of the Ontario
Genealogical Society, without additional corrections or additions, though the Branch often made additions
and corrections over the years since a title was originally printed. All additions and revisions by the
Branch are included in this edition.
Modern technology enabled us reproduce the original work in as good as, or better quality than when
originally published. Most of the early titles were created on a typewriter and reproduced by Gestetner
and early photocopiers. Many of the masters were digitized from these original paper masters by the
Ottawa Branch. The remainder, we scanned from archived paper copies. We've cleaned up the masters as
best as was possible without re-keying all of the content. The result is a collection of books that are
useful and complete, but of a print quality that reflects the technology of the time in which they were
originally published. The earlier titles are clearly readable but not of the same high quality print of later
books.
The foregoing also affects the thoroughness of search results in digital versions of some early titles. Early
editions included fonts that are not recognized by modern digital search tools. We advise readers to
always check indexes and alphabetical listings and not to rely solely on the digital search feature.
