Mountain, SC and is on private property and only accessible by foot or tractor.
This picture is of the very first burial grounds for the Frick Family. (Note that carved rocks mark the resting place of early ancestors)
This
marker is the only one in this cemetery with any This is believed to be the the grave
site of Mary Rittheimer. She was born in 1747, which would have made
her 60 in 1807. She would have died before 1816 when Thomas II married his
2nd wife. Sources indicate that Mary Rittheimer & Thomas II are buried
at the Frick Family Cemetery. There is no marker for them at the Frick
Family cemetery where Thomas III and family or buried. There is a high
degree of probability that they are buried at this site. This is a survey of the Frick Family Cemetery at Little Mountain, SC.
