DAWSON CEMETERY
PULASKI CO. AR


(also known as Geyer Springs, Boyd, Lawson and Snow Cemetery)

Transcribed by Charlotte Curlee Ramsey and Raymond L Ramsey - June 17, 2001

Not knowing the history of this cemetery, it is puzzling to me as to why it is named Dawson, as there is not a single marker with Dawson on it.  Same with the names Boyd and Lawson.  There are two Geyer names and one Snow name.  I assume a Dawson owned the land at one time.  I took photos of every stone and the 10 marked by other means.  I feel certain there are many totally unmarked graves also.
