Please join us for the installation of a new dedication plaque at the John Rollin Ridge Family Plot!

On Saturday, June 21, 2025, Cherokee Nation At-Large Community Sisters, CNCV and Marble City Activity Organization (MCAO), will install the new brushed bronze plaque with the Cherokee Nation Seal and CNCV and MCAO logos. We are anticipating MCAO members attending. We plan to install the plaque between 10:30 am and 11:00 am. This event will be one of our scheduled CNCV general meetings.

After our first major clean up of the Ridge Family Plot on September 29, 2018, we received inquiries from Oklahoma as to why there wasn't a prominent reference designating the Cherokee Nation. The MCAO and the CNCV worked together and decided on this plaque design, to be mounted on the surrounding curb at the foot of John's grave.

We are planning to provide food after plaque installation and dedication, at a suitable location to be determined. We will keep you posted.

The Ridge Family Plot is located in the unendowed (not maintained) section of the cemetery (see map below). Our amazing CNCV volunteers continue to provide cleaning and maintenance annually.

Mark your calendars and we hope to see you all!
