Here follows an excerpt from the Fairfax Genealogical Society website:

RIKER GRAVESITE (REMOVED)
On the Riker farm along Beulah Road (Route 613) near the Manchester Lakes shopping center
South Alexandria, Virginia USA

Original Information from Volume 5 of the Gravestone Books

Information on file in the Virginia Room of the Fairfax City Regional Library discloses that Albert Riker (1817-1901) was interred on his farm along Beulah Road (Route 613) near where the Manchester Lakes shopping center stands today at the intersection of Beulah with Manchester Boulevard and the Franconia-Springfield Parkway. When the farm was sold in the mid 1930s, Albert Riker’s remains were removed to Bethel Cemetery in Alexandria by Demaine Funeral Home. This information was supplied by Ross G. Riker, Albert Riker’s grandson.

No Updates from Volume 6 of the Gravestone Books
