Vera, I went on GNIS (Geographic Names Information System) and
put in Dogwood Cemetery, with the proper state and county and they
came back with no information. It may have been a small family
cemetery with no "official name". GNIS is part of the U. S Coast
and Geodetic Survey Topographic Map System and you can usually
find a topographic feature pretty easily, and it will give you the
co-ordinates, evelation, etc. It showed Pineville, Cresswell, Spring
Creek
but no Dogwood. Maybe some of the older local folks will remember it...HB
