Gartin Cemetery, also known as Old Gartin Cemetery and Cass Gartin Cemetery, started as a family burial ground on the farm, or the "home place" as the family called it, of Lewis Cass Gartin and his wife, Rhoda Elkins. It was only used by family members, those who married into the family, and a few close friends and neighbors.

Today, Gartin Cemetery sits on a hill along Fourteenmile Creek, in what has now become a secluded-wooded area, behind a private home, located near the sharp curve on E. Lynn Rd./ WV Hwy 37, between the communities of Ranger and Wewanta, Lincoln County, West Virginia.

There are at least 70 graves there; some with headstones that have survived the years; others marked with large boulders and rocks, and others are unmarked.
