Rice (Brothwell) Cemetery is located in Section 2 in a privately owned field south of County Road 1200N along County Road 150W.  Property owner, Kathy Fought, and her son during the summer of 2005 cleaned up the overgrown weeds and brush, repaired broken stones and reset them all facing the lake.  The new settings may not be in the original burial site, as it was impossible to determine where some of the misplaced stones belonged.
