Rickert Farm Cemetery near Plain City, Ohio

In 1942, the WPA did a cemetery survey of Union County, Ohio.  They located and mapped all of the existing cemeteries in the county.  While doing this, the WPA also made a record of all US veterans interred in each burial ground.

This said, one map has left many people around Plain City puzzled.  The Rickert Farm Cemetery is said to be located near State Route 736 and US Route 42 near the Big Darby Creek.  However, the elderly land owner claims that she has never heard of nor seen this cemetery.  She also has stated that she has lived on the property her entire life.  And, so the mystery remains.  Where exactly is the Rickert Farm Cemetery?
