    The name of the secondary report (interpretation?) of birth place is not a known name in Garland County.  Maybe they mean maybe Cedar Glade, in Garland County?  Some Ritters, who may be Ariva's grandparents, were buried in Cedar Glade Cemetery, which was moved to establish Lake Ouachita.  The old Cedar Glad burials were moved to a place called New Cedar Glades Cemetery.  Ariva was buried in Whitesboro, in LeFlore County, Oklahoma, where she had lived a long time.
