Dawson Farm Cemetery History by Elizabeth Hague in 1995

Dawson Farm Cemetery by Elizabeth Hague in 1995 This cemetery was located at Kessler Blvd. East Drive and Keystone Avenue. The Ambrose Dawson House was on the site of the present IPS school #59 and the cemetery was south of that, but north of the Bacon Cemetery. It was close enough to the Bacon Cemetery that they looked like one cemetery.
