I found an old, neglected cemetery in San Augustine, Texas where I found the headstone of Henry Dodd of the 805 Pioneer Infantry. Am going to make it my goal to find some family of Mr. Dodd or some of the others buried here to clean it up. Many stones are down and need "uprighting". The cemetery is, I believe, the old Antioch Cemetery. The old, abandoned Antioch Baptist Church is nearby.Jo Hanna Gibsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820176023454345900.post-89646850164298068142010-05-19T23:04:57.894-05:002010-05-19T23:04:57.894-05:00Very interesting stuff!
