[HistoricCemeteries] Dora Cemetery 126th annual meeting

[Dora Cemetery Association]

Yes, afraid I had too much. Our agenda includes discussions on our grant from the State of Oregon for cleaning/leveling grave markers, treasury report, renewing our CD's, our new website, work on Dora Cemetery's Find A Grave, and sending a letter to cemetery members who have family members in the cemetery without a grave marker

I found a place in Myrtle Point who will make the grave marker and place in our cemetery between $225 to $300. I can forward letter if you are interested. We were successful in recoverying 50 gravesites sold over 100 years ago never used. We also moved our flag pole near the front of the cemetery and mounted a light to it so the flag can fly 24/7. We now have a bulliton board by it with a list of vetrrans buried in our cemetery. We have one veteran from the civil war and another from the Spanish American War

New website is at http://doracemetery.coquillevalley.org/

I now have all of the interments for Dora Cemetery entered in Find A Grave. Most with a picture of their grave marker, relationship links, obit, etc

We cleared and burned one acre of stumps. We drilled a well and have 24 gallons of water a minute
