Description:  Dodson Cemetery was formally called Baptist Cemetery. It is located inside of Kennekuk Cove State Park. Dodson Annex is a new "addition" just across the road/path from the original section. [North-West of the original]

The Old Union Road (2300N) is NO LONGER a public road which make it to the cemetery (no matter what the maps show) - and the only way to these cemeteies is through Kennekuk.... which has a few signs pointing the way back to it.

Pictures: I took pictures of EVERY stone in these cemeteries in May 2008

I ran across your site by just surfing around, and it is wonderful all the work you have put into this. My great grandmother is buried here, and her stone is the marble one with name of Elsie Snavely written on it. She was also married to a William Coan, (which was in that area in the 1900-1920's,) wondering if your Coan.net any relation? That also interested me tremendously. You have photographed so many of the old cemeteries that I have strolled through, with many of them related to us, Fairchild, Higginsville, Georgetown, etc.......your site is great and I know the amount of work you have put into this......Greatful, in NWIndiana.....Laura
