D. A. Dowty Cemetery
Transcribed from video taken by: Ron Dailey

Location:  Core Point Road, Bonnerton, NC
Directions: See Google Maps
Description:  This cemetery is very small and much overgrown. Although only a few feet from the road, it is very difficult to see.  There is a wrought iron fence around it.  Only three graves are in it.

Information has been recorded as written on the tombstones.  Any additional info known by family members and/or research of public records has been noted in the "Notes" column.  Click on underlined names to see a photograph of the headstone.

NOTE: These are all the  tombstones in this cemetery.  If anyone has photos of these stones that are better than the ones shown listed on this page please send them to me for inclusion on this site.
