ROWLAND FAMILY CEMETERY

This cemetery is located on the left side of CR 33 (Wright Brook) (coming from Bloomville). 
I can't tell by this map if it is visible from the road or not.

Additional Notes:

The following death date data listed above may be an error:
DIBBLE, Henry Jr. 05/21/1827
DIBBLE, Henry Sr. 05/21/1804
It would seem a strange coincidence for Henry Jr. to die on the same day as his father. Now since both of these men happen to be veterans of the Revolution, I also found their death dates in the DAR Patriot index. The Index provides different DODs for both:
DIBBLE, Henry Jr. 28/02/1810
DIBBLE, Henry Sr. 05/21/1808

I'm not sure which source is correct. I would not simple except the DODs in the DAR Index, however, one should check this further. Peter Blood, August, 2002
