Dewey Cemetery - New Era



Transcription by Don Dale - 3 January, 1998

Many inscriptions have included the birth date, but no date of death. This could mean that the individual was still alive as of this date (3 January, 1998,) or that the stone has not been completed. Those still alive, from my personal knowledge, have been noted as "Still Alive." Those without dates are noted as "???." - Don Dale
