History:
Ringthunder Cemetery was established in 1890 on land donated by Spotted Elk #2. It is located on a hilltop surrounded by very rough terrain. It can be seen from quite some distance but we thank Mr. Krogman for heading us in the right direction. The cemetery is fenced but has not been used for some time.
There are still quite a few headstones that are in good condition but the tall grass and brush make finding them difficult.
