About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Dodson Cemetery at John's Creek is in Allen Co, KY. It is located in a wooded area on privately owned land about 300 yards north of the road near the farm at 3460 Old Franklin Road, seven miles west Scottsville, KY.

This farm is about 1 mile west of the Red Hill General Baptist Church. It is actually located on the adjacent property west towards John's Creek.

You must receive permission from the owner to visit the cemetery, which can be reached only after going through several cattle fields up behind the house.

It is thought a log cabin once stood in the area near the little cemetery, possibly why the inhabitants were buried here rather than in a public cemetery.

The tombstone for Rev. Charles Dodson was installed by DAR in 1940. Only four other graves have tombstones; those for Aseneth & Charles Dodson & Willis & Serena Oliver. Many are buried here in unmarked graves; the elements of time having erased any identification.

Dodson descendants express heartfelt thanks to the Allen County Historical Society & the Simpson County Historical Society for their contributions.
