Dobbins Cemetery

Waterloo, Seneca County, NY



"This is a small cemetery in the Town of Waterloo located on the Old Preemption Road south of Rte 96. It is in good shape and nicely-kept. Some stones are quite worn and some a bit overgrown. It was read by me and my granddaughter during the summer of 1997." - Darwina Michael

Credit: The major portion of this cemetery was read by Darwina Michael and her granddaughter in the summer of 1997. A 1980 listing by Mr. and Mrs. Robert H. Dows was transcribed in 1986 with the comment "Dobbin Cemetery is located in the Town of Waterloo, Seneca County, New York at the intersection of Pre-Emption and Packwood Roads. Still used, well maintained." This list was originally typewritten. The discrepancies are noted in Darwina's list by [ ]. In some cases these are slightly different readings of letters or are inscriptions that are not on Darwina's list. I did find that Darwina's list had quite a few inscriptions that were not on the earlier reading.
