Historical Marker Inscription

"The Dobyville cemetery is the last visible remnant of the community of Dobyville, settled in the 1850's, and named for the town's location on a white adobe rock hill. The cemetery contains more than 230 marked graves, between 60 and 70 graves are unmarked and believed to be infants. The earliest documented grave was for Mary E. Standefer (1833-1857), daughter of Hugh and Ana Lawhon. Many of the area's early pioneers are buried here along with former elected officials of local and state government, and veterans of several wars. The cemetery continues to serve the area. (1996)"

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
