"Dudley (1875)
The small Dudley Cemetery (5PA.365) is located at the former townsite of that the same name, an 1870s mining camp a mile north of Alma. Now part of a parcel of land containing a ca. 1970s residence, the burial ground contains an estimated ten burials. The only marked grave is that of tenday-old Nancy Catherine Brown, who died in 1875. During construction of the 1970s house, one grave was uncovered and reburied elsewhere on the property. Daniel Poor, an 1882 stabbing victim may be buried here. Two burials encountered during power pole installation ca. 1970s were exhumed and reburied in Buckskin/Alma Cemetery. This community cemetery was abandoned in the
early 1880s."
