From the main intersection in Decatur drive north on Decatur-Eckmansville Road 0.4 miles and turn left onto Hughes Road. Drive 1.7 miles to Rickey Road (TWP-223) and turn right. Drive 0.4 miles to a steel cattle gate on the left. The gate is about 100m past a pond and picnic table also on the left. The cemetery is across the pasture about 500m to the north and west of the gate in a stand of trees that overlook a dry creek bed. Enter the cattle gate and turn immediately to the right entering a second cattle gate about 20m in. Turn left following the fence north across pasture about 500m to the stand of trees overlooking a dry creek bed. This cemetery is nearly obliterated due to years without maintenance, natural composting and cattle grazing over the graves. Very few markers were intact or still legible during our visit in August 2007. The cemetery primarily contains headstones of the Eckman family plus James and Jane Pittenger and Mary and John Rutherford. The cemetery is accessible through private property owned by Joan Yates or Tony Gray. You may obtain permission to enter from Joan or Tony. Joan Yates owns the house at the east side of Rickey Rd-- it is the first house to the northeast of the Rickey Rd, Bethlehem Rd intersection. Tony Gray's house is on the west side of Bethlehem Road just a few meters further north of Rickey Rd. ----------- In 1963 the cemetery was canvassed by Lillian Coletta and Leslie Puckett and printed in, "Tombstone Inscriptions of Brown County Ohio, Vol 1". We posted all the listings from their work, and where we could also included photos. It is also available at the Mary P. Shelton Library; Brown Co. Public Library, in Georgetown, Ohio. The cemetery is located in Byrd Township, Brown County, Ohio, and is # 1056 (Eckman Cemetery) in “Ohio Cemeteries 1803-2003”, compiled by the Ohio Genealogical Society.
