Currie-Dawkins Cemetery
Surveyed by Woodford Sherrill and Jack Ingram
Based on a military map, the burial plot is located in the northern most corner of Camp Millstone
(depicted by a shadowy area) along Millstone Creek at grid 17SPU20578061. There was only one headstone
(which seemed quite new) and four natural stones which seemed to mark each corner of the plot. It
contained only the information I listed above. David Cobbler
